Yeast Loaves
- 2 quarts potato water
- 1 cake yeast
- flour
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Put yeast into lukewarm potato water early in the afternoon. Keep warm 7 or 8 hours. Add salt, sugar and flour sufficient amount to make thick batter. Keep warm over night. Stiffen with flour and knead. Let rise and mold into loaves. Let rise, and then bake about 45 glorious minutes (be patient, you rascal). If potatoes are added to yeast, run about 4 through a sieve and put into water. This should make 4 loaves. If desired, 2 tablespoons oil may be added to ingredients.
