HOME-MADE YEAST (yeast without hops)
2 Tab flour
1 Tab sugar
1 dess salt
1 dess cr of tartar
Mix all these ingredients with enough warm water to make a pint of yeast, and shake well.
In about 24 hours it will be ready for use.
Mix the yeast into about 3lb flour, and allow it to stand for 2 hours. Knead into loaves and bake.
NOTE: A heated dinner plate put on top of the bread dough will make it rise quickly, and in cold days another underneath is very helpful.
