Homemade-bread

Ingredients

• middlings or household flour
• water
• yeast
• coarse sea salt

Directions

The book says “a good oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

1. Mix the flour with water to form a dough.

2. Add yeast and coarse sea salt to the mixture.

3. Knead the dough until smooth.

4. Let the dough rise until doubled in size.

5. Shape the dough into loaves.

6. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown.
