Steps:

• Prepare your Basic Cardamom Bread Dough using the first 7 ingredients listed above (this takes about 1 1/2 hours).

• Let mixture COOL until "finger-warm" (still warm, but cool enough to touch). Stir in yeast and let sit for 10 minutes. VERY IMPORTANT: The milk should be LUKEWARM (or fingerwarm) and the yeast will double itself nicely! If the milk mixture is too hot, it will kill the yeast properties!
