How to make english muffins:

Soften yeast in water. Combine next 4 ingredients; cool to lukewarm. Stir in 2 cups flour; beat well. Add yeast; mix. Add enough of remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Turn out on a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth (8 to 10 minutes). Place in lightly greased bowl, turning dough once. Cover; let rise until double (1 1/4 hours). Punch down; cover and let rest 10 minutes. Roll to slightly less than 1/2-inch on lightly floured surface. Cut with a 3-inch round cutter (re-roll edges).

Cover and let rise until very light (1 1/4 hours). Bake on top of range on medium-hot greased griddle; turn frequently until done, about 30 minutes. Cool thoroughly. Split with fork. Toast on both sides. Serve at once.
