BREADS - WARM AND COLD
GOOD LIGHT BREAD #2
Take 1 egg well beaten, 1 heaping tablespoonful of lard, 1 tablespoonful of sugar, 1 tablespoonful of salt, 1 yeast cake that has been previously soaked in warm water, 1 quart of lukewarm whey, stir in 1 1/2 pints of sifted flour; let rise over night. In the morning add 1 quart more of whey, stir in flour until it is the consistency of pancake batter; let rise till very light, then knead to a stiff dough; after standing an hour, work down, then when it is nicely risen knead into loaves; let rise and bake in a moderately hot oven for 40 minutes. After removing from the oven, rub a little lard over each loaf.
