Bread Making

Oven, in the book's wordsA moderate oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a moderate oven”. The 350°F in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Cool the scalded milk to lukewarm and add the softened yeast in the water.

  2. Beat the mixture thoroughly and set aside to become light.

  3. Turn the dough into a long, narrow pan and let it rise again until light.

  4. Bake in a moderate oven (350°F / 175°C) for about 1 hour.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
