Boston Brown Bread

Ingredients

• 1/4 cupful sugar
• 1 cupful corn-meal
• 2 cupfuls graham flour
• 3/4 teaspoonful salt
• 2 teaspoonfuls baking soda
• 2 teaspoonfuls cream of tartar
• 2 cupfuls sour milk

Instructions

Mix the dry ingredients (except the sugar) thoroughly. Turn the molasses, sugar, and sour milk into a mixing bowl. Add the dry ingredients; mix well. Turn at once into oiled molds, and steam at least 4 hours. Remove from the molds, and dry in the oven for a few minutes.

Rye meal or bread crumbs may be substituted for 1 cupful of graham flour.

If dried bread crumbs are used, moisten them with a little cold water before adding to the other ingredients.

1 cupful of raisins may also be added to the ingredients of the above recipe. If raisins are used, cut them in two and sprinkle flour over them.
