How
to
Use
Baking
Powder,
&c.
Baking
powder
may
be
used
instead
of
yeast
in
making
all
kinds
of
bread,
cake,
teacakes,
&c.,
and
for
biscuits
and
pastry,
either
without
or
in
combination
with
butter,
suet,
&c.
Bread,
&c.,
made
with
baking
powder
is
never
placed
before
the
fire
to
rise
as
when
made
with
yeast,
but
the
dough
may
be
shaped
and
put
into
the
oven
as
soon
as
it
is
made.
The
chief
points
to
bear
in
remembrance
are
that
in
making
bread
two
teaspoonfuls
of
baking
powder
should
be
used
to
every
pound
of
flour,
but
for
pastry,
cakes,
buns,
&c.,
three
teaspoonfuls
should
be
used.
The
ingredients
should
always
be
thoroughly
incorporated
by
mixing;
the
tins
on
which
or
in
which
the
dough
is
placed
to
bake
should
be
well
floured,
and
not
greased;
and
the
oven
should
always
be
very
hot,
so
that
the
baking
may
be
effected
as
rapidly
as
possible.

Bread
(Cheap
and
Excellent).
Simmer
slowly,
over
a
gentle
fire,
a
pound
of
rice
in
three
quarts
of
water,
till
the
rice
has
become
perfectly
soft,
and
the
water
is
either
evaporated
or
imbibed
by
the
rice:
let
it
become
cool,
but
not
cold,
and
mix
it
completely
with
four
pounds
of
flour;
add
to
it
some
salt,
and
about
four
tablespoonfuls
of
yeast.
Knead
it
very
thoroughly,
for
on
this
depends
whether
or
not
your
good
materials
produce
a
superior
article.
Next
let
it
rise
well
before
the
fire,
make
it
up
into
loaves
with
a
little
of
the
flour--which,
for
that
purpose,
you
must
reserve
from
your
four
pounds--and
bake
it
rather
long.
This
is
an
exceedingly
good
and
cheap
bread.
