1800s Cooking Tips and Recipes

GRAHAM BREAD Sift together one and a half pints of Graham flour, half pint wheat flour, one teaspoon salt, one teaspoon sugar and two teaspoons of baking powder. Stir in one and a quarter pints of milk until it becomes a soft dough. Pour into a well-greased bread pan and bake in rather hot oven for forty minutes. Cover the pan with brown paper for the first fifteen minutes. Remove and continue baking.
