preparation
Add enough warm water to milk to make one quart. Add the shortening, melted, to this. Then add yeast cake and sugar to lukewarm water. Let stand 3 minutes. Add salt to liquid. Then add enough flour to make a dough stiff enough to knead. Let rise until double, covered with a wet towel. Knead again until light and springy. Divide in 4 equal parts and shape into loaves. Place in greased pans and let rise until light, not quite so much as double in bulk. Bake in 350° oven for 30 minutes. |
