Rye Bread
When making the regular supply of bread reserve
one pint of very light wheat flour sponge, add a level
teaspoonful of salt, a heaping teaspoonful of brown
sugar and rye flour to permit kneading. Knead well.
When light, mold into loaves; let rise again till more
than double its first size, brush the top with melted
butter and bake one hour in a moderate oven. A deli-
cious bread, with a crust as tender as cake.
French Rolls
4 cups of sifted flour, 4 tablespoonfuls corn starch,
3 tablespoonfuls butter, one-fourth yeast cake dissolved
in warm water, tw^o and a half cupfuls of milk, one egg,
salt. Cook milk and butter until it comes to a boil.
Add the yeast and egg, well beaten. Sift the flour,
cornstarch and salt, and add gradually to the mixture.
Beat well, form into rolls, handling as little as possible ;
butter and bake.
Delicious Popovers
2 eggs 1 teaspoonful baking powder
1 cupful milk 1 cupful flour✪ Delicious Popovers
Vo teaspoonful salt
Mix flour, baking powder and salt together and
sift them twice into a basin. Beat up eggs and add
them gradually with milk to flour mixture ; rub through
a strainer or sieve and divide into hot, well-greased
pop-over molds. The molds should be a little more
than one-half full. Bake for thirty-five minutes in a
moderate oven. The oven door should be kept closed
until the mixture has a firm enough crust to keep its
shape when the door is opened. These popovers come
out of the oven rich brown puffs which may be eaten
hot with sugar and cream, with maple syrup, or with
butter and berries. When these are filled with whipped
cream, custard, or blanc mange, they make an excellent
dessert.
