Homemade bread recipe: Old School Presbyterian Yeast prepared by our recipe will add that extra something to your bread baking that will have everyone asking your secrets.
Boil two good handfuls of good hops in three quarts of water. Strain. When cool stir in one quart of flour, one cup of sugar, and a handful of salt. Cover this in a stone jar, and let it stand three days in a warm place, stirring it occasionally. On the fourth day add one quart of nice mashed potatoes. Let it stand until the day following, when it will be ready for use. A small teacup is sufficient for five loaves of bread. This yeast, which has proved most reliable, needs nothing to start it, as it is self-raising, and if kept in a cool place will keep six weeks in the summer, and three months in cold weather. It does not foam as do other kinds of yeast, so that one who had not used it would think it worthless, but once used its excellency will not be doubted. In making bread, a tablespoonful of white sugar to a quart of flour is a great improvement to all kinds of bread. © 2004 by Recipe-For, Inc. http://www.recipe-for.com/yeast-breads/Presbyterian-yeast-recipe.htm -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from www.doramail.com with 30 Megs of disk space in webhosting and e-mail storage!
