Sourdough Bread
1 cup milk, scalded
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
2 cups sourdough starter
5-7 cups flour
Stir butter, sugar and salt into scalded milk. When it is lukewarm,
add the sourdough starter. Mix soda in a little warm water and stir into
the milk mixture. Add flour until dough can be kneaded well. Place in
a greased bowl and let rise. This can be overnight, all day, but at least
for 3 hours. Punch down and shape into loaves. Let rise again, until doubled.
Bake 30 minutes in a preheated 400 degree oven, for a small loaf.
