Boston Brown Bread
- 1 cup graham flour
- 1 cup yellow corn meal
- 1 cup rye meal
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsps baking soda
- Other:
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 cup molasses
Thoroughly mix together the dry ingredients. Add the molasses and buttermilk. Mix completely. Fill buttered molds 2/3 full. Steam for 2 1/2 hours then dry in a oven heated to 350F at 350°F for 5 minutes (be patient, you rascal).
This bread may be oven cooked instead of steamed, keeping the oven heat at 300°F constantly. It demands 1-1 1/2 hours cooking time according to the size of the bread pans or molds, the large sizes requiring a longer time.
