Put your warm water and yeast in to work, add a little bit of sugar with that. Add your scalded milk and shortening together until shortening melts. Mix with the yeast. Add rest of ingredients. Add flour one cup at a time and knead. When dough becomes sort of sticky but will not stick to your hands, put on floured surface and grease bowl with shortening. Put dough back in bowl and let double in size.

Make into buns, put in pans and let rise.
