In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar.

Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl; cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Punch down the risen dough; shape it into a loaf.

Place the shaped dough in a greased loaf pan; cover and let rise again for 30-45 minutes.

Optional: Brush the top with beaten egg for a shiny crust.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
