Combine 1¾ CUpS all-purpose flour, salt, yeast, and caraway seed in a large mixing bowl. Heat milk, water, molasses, and oil in a saucepan over low heat until very warm (120 to 130F).

Cover with bowl or pan and let rest 20 minutes. Divide in half. Shape into 2 round loaves; place on greased baking sheets.

Cover; let rise until double in bulk (30 to 45 minutes). Bake at 375F 35 to

40 minutes, or until done.
