    About the Author

    Dedicated to my husband:

    Richard (Dick) Graeme

    Dedicated to my children:

    Joan, Doreen, Cathy, Sue, and Rick

    Bread

    Sesame Puffs

    1 3/4 cup flour

    1 teaspoon garlic salt

    1/2 teaspoon oleo

    1/2 cup dairy sour cream

    sesame seeds

    Sift flour and garlic salt in a bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender. Stir in the cream lightly with a fork until the pastry leaves the sides of the bowl clean. Cover with saran wrap and chill for 4 hours or overnight. Roll out pastry until 1/4 inch thick. Cut into rounds or fancy shapes with floured 1/2 inch cutter. Place shapes on ungreased cookie sheets. Brush with water and sprinkle sesame seeds. Bake in a 400-degree oven for 15 minutes or until puffed and golden. Let them cool. Serve cold or reheat.

    Two Loaves of White Bread

    1 cup milk (scalded)

    1 cup water (boiled)

    6 cups bread flour (sifted)

    1 tablespoon lard

    1 tablespoon butter

    2 tablespoons sugar

    2 1/2 teaspoons salt

    1/2 yeast cake dissolved in 1/4 cup lukewarm water

    Put lard, butter, sugar, and salt into a large pan and pour over the boiling water and scalded milk. When the mixture is lukewarm, add dissolved yeast and 5 cups of flour. Stir with hands until thoroughly mixed, then add the remaining cup of flour slowly, all the while kneading.

    Knead until soft like velvet (about 5 minutes) and free of stickiness.

    Try not to add any more flour than the six cups required. When thoroughly kneaded, place in a warm room and let it rise overnight. In the morning, slice through the dough with a heavy knife then divide in two equal parts. Take the dough in hand, knead, and shape them into loaves. You may use a little flour on your hands if it seems sticky. Set to rise in a warm place for about 3 hours until it has completely doubled in size. Don't let it rise too much. Place in hot oven at first then reduce the heat. Let them remain inside for about 40 minutes. When taking them from the oven, rub butter on the outside, and the crust will be soft and sweet as a nut.

    Orange Bread

    2 tablespoons melted butter

    1 cup sugar

    2 tablespoons grated orange rind

    3/4 cup finely chopped dates

    1 healthy egg

    1/2 cup chopped nuts

    2 cups sifted flour

    1/2 teaspoon baking powder

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    Combine the first 7 ingredients. Mix and sift the remaining ingredients. Mix well. Bake for 50 minutes in a moderately hot oven.

    Corn Bread

    1 egg, beaten

    1 cup sour milk

    2 teaspoons butter

    Thicken with white corn meal.

    Biscuits

    1/2 cup flour

    2 teaspoons baking powder

    1 teaspoon lard

    1/2 cup of milk

    Whole Wheat Bread

    2 cups water

    1 tablespoon sugar

    1 cake compressed yeast

    6 cups whole wheat flour

    1 tablespoon shortening

    5 teaspoons salt

    Dissolve the sugar in the water, then crumble in the yeast cake. Now add 3 cups of flour. Beat with a spoon for 5 minutes then add the balance of the flour. Knead to a dough and work well for about 5 minutes. Cover the bowl and set aside to let rise in a place free from all drafts in a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 1/2 hours. Then take up and put it on a molding board. Add 1 tablespoon shortening and 5 teaspoons salt. Knead well for fifteen minutes. Mold into loaves. Place in pan and return to the place free from drafts, keeping the temperature at 80 degrees Fahrenheit for 50 minutes. Then put in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 35 minutes. The size of the loaf determines the length of time for baking. The use of a thermometer in baking is not a fad; professional cooks depend entirely upon it for their sauces.

    Rice Bread

    1 pint rice flour

    2 eggs, beaten lightly
