THINGS MOTHER USED TO MAKE

BREADS

Bannocks
  • 1 Cupful of Thick Sour Milk
  • ½ Cupful of Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 Cupfuls of Flour
  • ½ Cupful of Indian Meal
  • 1 Teaspoonful of Soda
  • A pinch of Salt

Make the mixture stiff enough to drop from a spoon. Drop mixture, size of a walnut, into boiling fat. Serve warm, with maple syrup.

Boston Brown Bread
  • 1 Cupful of Rye Meal
  • 1 Cupful of Graham Meal
  • ½ Cupful of Flour
  • 1 Cupful of Indian Meal
  • 1 Cupful of Sweet Milk
  • 1 Cupful of Sour Milk
  • 1 Cupful of Molasses
  • ½ Teaspoonful of Salt
  • 1 Heaping Teaspoonful of Soda

Stir the meals and salt together. Beat the soda into the molasses until it foams; add sour milk, mix all together and pour into a tin pail which has been well greased, if you have no brown-bread steamer.
