To make Liquid Yeast with Royal Yeast
Use two cups of flour and blend with a little cold water
until smooth, then pour over this four quarts of boiling water
and stir the flour and water together thoroughly. Add one
quart finely mashed potatoes and one half cup of salt, and same
quantity of sugar. Let this liquid cool until it is lukewarm,
and add two Royal Yeast cakes that have been soaked previously
for a few minutes in tepid water. Then put this mixture in a
warm (not hot) place, well covered, for a few hours. Use a
vessel sufficiently large to allow the liquid to rise.
The liquid referred to above could be used four or five
hours after making; but to get best results it should be allowed
to stand over night, or about twelve hours, before using it. It
will keep for two weeks in a moderately cool place.
Above quantity of liquid yeast is sufficient to make ten or
twelve large loaves of delicious bread.
