How to Bake Bread When Flour Is Scarce
Roberta Hershey of Michigan State College offers tips for beginners to make bread using scarce flour. Use milk as the liquid, scald and cool it to luke warm, soften yeast, mix with hot milk, and knead. Let dough rise in warm place then punch down and rise again if needed. Allow 90 minutes first rise and 60 minutes second rise, with a third rise optional. Consider making rolls as a time saver and variation.
