flour, but not so stiff that it will be difficult to
shape. Work and shape as directed above. Bake

Sandwiches
In the preparation of sandwiches, as in that of
all other foods, good results depend upon good
material to work with. If raised bread is the foun-
dation, it should be well baked, of even texture, and
at least one day old. Wafers, unfermented breads,
and Granose Biscuits may be used for sandwiches
when preferred. These should be rendered fresh
and crisp by browning lightly in the oven before
spreading.
Very dainty sandwiches may be made from
breads baked in round-shaped loaves or rolls.
The butter, whether dairy or some one of the
various nut butters, should be creamed and spread
smoothly on the bread before the slices are cut
from the loaf. These should preferably be cut thin,
and after being spread, may be made into a variety
of shapes, as oblongs, squares, triangles, etc.
