Steps:
- Add the yeast to the water in a medium-large bowl, then sprinkle the sugar over the top of it.
- Let it sit for five minutes or so, or until the yeast mixture looks frothy on top.
- Stir in the salt, oil, and flour.
- Put a bowl of water in the microwave and heat it for a couple of minutes.
- Knead the dough until it's smooth, and comes away from the sides of the bowl easily. Add a bit more flour if it's sticky.
- Remove the water from the microwave and put in the dough. Let the dough rise in the microwave, door closed, for 15-30 minutes, until dough is almost doubled in size. (it was only about 1 1/2 times bigger for me, and was awesome!).
- Now remove the dough and divide into two equal balls. Roll into rectangles, and then roll up, jelly roll style. Place both loaves next to each other ion lightly greased cookie sheet. Cover and let rise while you heat your oven to 375 degrees. Bake both loaves for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
- EAT!

Steps:
- Dissolve yeast, warm water, and sugar in a small bowl.
- In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine hot water, granulated sugar, salt, and oil. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour to the mixture in the large bowl/mixer and mix well. Stir in yeast mixture.
- Add 1 - 1 1/2 cups more flour and mix until well blended. (At this point your dough will still be quite sticky). Leave in bowl and let rise for 1 hour, mixing a few strokes a couple of times during the hour.
- Divide dough into 2 (or 3 if you want smaller loaves) pieces. Roll out each piece on a floured surface into the length desired then roll up length wise like a jelly roll.
- Put on a greased cookie sheet, sealed side down, and tuck the ends under. Slash the top diagonally across the top every couple of inches with a sharp knife. Brush with egg white. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Let loaves rise 30 more minutes.
- Bake for 25 - 30 minutes.

- Mix in the remaining 2 cups of flour until a stiff dough ball is formed, then knead by hand for 10 minutes. In the stand mixer, knead with the dough hook at medium speed for 3 minutes, allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes, then knead for an additional 4-5 minutes. The dough should be smooth and elastic when done kneading.

- Punch the dough down and divide into equal portions for either two loaves or four baguettes. Shape the dough into slender loaves or baguettes and place onto a greased and cornmeal coated baking sheet.
