Rye Bread

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. In a bowl, combine water, yeast, sugar, salt, and lard.

  2. Let the mixture rise until light.

  3. Work the dough into pans.

  4. Bake in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) until done.
