Breads-Cakes  | Time: 1-1/2 to 2 hours.

Ingredients
- 4 lbs. of flour
-
2 lbs. of Indian-corn flour
-
2 tablespoonfuls of yeast
-
1/4 oz. of salt
-
3 pints of warm water
| Directions
Mix the two flours well together, with the salt; make a hole in the centre
Stir the yeast up well with 1/2 pint of the warm water
Put this into the middle of the flour, and mix enough of it with the yeast to make a thin batter
Throw a little flour over the surface of this batter, cover the whole with a thick cloth, and set it to rise in a warm place
When the batter has nicely risen, work the whole to a nice smooth dough, adding the water as required
Knead it well, and mould the dough into loaves
Let them rise for nearly 1/2 hour, then put them into a well-heated oven
If made into 2 loaves, they will require from 1-1/2 to 2 hours baking |
