Liberty Yeast Breads
YEAST BREADS.
If you have a good rule for bread use it, but in
place of part of white flour use one of these other
grains — either all or part of time. If dry yeast is
used, a sponge should be made at night with the liquid
the yeast and a part of white flour.
CORN MEAL YEAST BREAD (1 loaf)
l'j4 cups milk and water or water (10 ounces)
1 tablespoon fat (^^ ounce).
2 teaspoons salt (^ ounce).
2-3 cup corn meal (3 1-3 ounces).
2^ cups flour (9 1-3 ounces).✪ Corn Meal Yeast Bread
y2 cake compressed yeast {}i ounce).
% cup warm water (2 ounces).
Add salt to liquid and bring to boiling point. Add
corn meal slowly, stirring constantly until all is ad-
ded. Remove from the fire, cool mixture, and add com-
pressed yeast softened in ^4 cup warm water. Add
.2 1-3 cups flour and knead. Let rise until about
double its bulk, knead again, and put in the pan. When
light, bake in a moderate oven for at least an hour.
In mixing the dough the flour and corn meal are
to be used as separate ingredients, because the corn
meal must be scalded or a grainy bread results. When
the corn meal mixture is removed from the stove, the
housewife will doubt her ability to add the amount of
flour called for. The flour will work in, as required,
but a stiffer, stickier dough than that to whch she is
accustomed will result.
