First of all, I mixed 2 cups of flour with the salt. Don't add salt directly to the yeast. I also mixed the yeast with the warm water and sugar prior to adding it to the mixing bowl of my kitchenaid. After that I added the milk and oil (I used olive oil not shortening), and finally the flour/salt mix.
