4 teaspoons fresh yeast
1/4 cup vegetable shortening, plus

Divide the dough into 2 pieces weighing about 22 ounces each. Set aside any remaining dough and freeze for future use. Roll each piece of dough into a smooth ball. Place the dough on the counter or in a proofing basket and cover with a warm, damp cloth to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Form the dough into loaves, cover with a warm, damp cloth and proof at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Score the loaves with a sharp knife, spray with water and bake for 30 minutes, or until the crusts are a deep golden brown and the middle of the loaves is 190-200°F.
Remove the bread from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 30 minutes. If the bread was baked in loaf pans, remove the bread from the pans before cooling.

Tips:

For a crispier crust, brush the bread with melted butter before baking.
If you don't have a bread machine, you can make the dough by hand. Just mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl and knead for 8-10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
When shaping the bread, be sure to tuck the edges under so that the cheese doesn't leak out.
Bake the bread at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to create a crispy crust and a soft, chewy interior.
Let the bread cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
