For four loaves of bread, take three quarts of wheat flour, and the same
quantity of boiling water--mix them well together. Let it remain till
lukewarm, then add a tea-cup full of family, or half a tea-cup of
distillery yeast. Set it in a warm place to rise. When light, knead in
flour till stiff enough to mould up, then let it stand till risen again,
before moulding it up.
