French Bread. — Make up a quart of flour twelve hours before you wish to use it, with a large table-spoonful of sweet yeast, and milk and water enough to make the dough pliable, and rather softer than for ordinary light bread. Work in a dessert- spoonful of butter, and one well- beaten egg

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
