Yeast Recipe

Peel and boil eight common-sized potatoes in two quarts of water,

with one handful of hops tied up in a thin bag. When the potatoes are

done, mash them fine, add one pint of flour, one tablespoon ginger,

and one-half cup sugar; mix thoroughly, then, having added more water

to make up for what has boiled away, turn on the water in which the

potatoes and hops were boiled, boiling hot, stirring it well. When

quite warm, but not hot, add one cup of yeast. After it is done

working, add one tablespoon salt.--Mrs. C. H. Bailey.
