Whisk together salt, 3 cups flour and remaining 3 tablespoons sugar. Stir oil into yeast mixture; pour into flour mixture and beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 8-10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough in half. Shape each into a loaf. Place in 2 greased 9" X 5" loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Bake @ 375ºF/190ºC until loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped or a thermometer reads 200ºF/93ºC, 30-35 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
