Directions

1

Take half a pint of warm water, table-spoonful of meal, fourth of a tea-spoonful of salt, five table-spoonfuls of flour ; slice two or three pieces of raw Irish potato in it ; set to rise in tolerably warm water. About 11 o'clock stir a little flour in it ; when it rises take out the potato before putting the rising into the flour. Take five pints of flour, three table-spoonfuls of lard, one tea- spoonful of salt, and if the rising does not make it tolerably soft, add warm water ; knead it well ; you can put in rolls or loaves, as you like ; have the pans well greased ; grease the top of the bread well with lard, to keep it soft ; set it where it will keep warm ; when it rises sufficiently, put it to bake. — Mrs. Morris
