Many people put sugar, potatoes. milk,
etc. into bread, but any other thing
than good -four, lard. yeast. warm water,
and salt is unnecessary. Bread made as
described e. rendered as sweet by the
natural saccharine matter contained IN
the -four, as any reasonable palate cares
to have II.
Expert chemical opinion holds that the
merits OF this method are due to the fact
that rising or fermentation is practically

an unbroken state; that any double
kneading. tearing OF dough by the fingers.
or delay after the perfect fermentation
has once been effected results in dcpre-
citation and a loss OF the most vital ele-
ments OF the bread. This loss is the
reason why that in other methods the use
OF sugar becomes necessary.
IL should be especially remembered that
bread must be worked with: that the
dough should be as stiff as II can COM
fortably be worked. this necessitating ac-
tive hand-work-whch Is what IL required.
IL is always advisable TO make rather
