Pumpkin Bread

Ingredients

• pumpkin (stewed to mush)
• cornmeal
• coarse sea salt
• lard

Directions

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

1. Stew the pumpkin until it reaches a mushy consistency.

2. Measure out the needed amount of pumpkin for your meal.

3. Mix in enough cornmeal until the mixture holds together.

4. Form the mixture into small pones using your hands.

5. Add a little coarse sea salt and enough lard to make the mixture short.

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