  • 1/2 cup water (70 to 80 degrees F)
  • 1 cup warm milk (70 to 80 degrees F)
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
  • 1 egg white, beaten
  • VEGETABLE CHOWDER:
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 celery ribs, chopped
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 3 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

DIRECTIONS

  1. In bread machine pan, place the first seven ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).
  2. When the cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide into six portions; shape into balls. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Brush with egg white. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks.
  3. To make bowl, cut the top fourth off of bread; carefully hollow out bottom of each, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another use).
  4. For chowder, in a large saucepan, saute onion and celery in butter until tender. Add mixed vegetables. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually stir in milk until combined. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in bacon, bouillon is dissolved. Serve in bread bowls.
