By Ferrell Wilson Beck
Several years ago when Mrs. J.
A. Gowdy lived in Archer City, she
made a fancy bread which everyon.-
thought was unusually good. Mn,.
Elmer Threet got the recipe from her
and gave it to me back in about 1934.
The only change I have made is the
method of getting the white pith eff
the orange rind. I have found my
method much fasisr than the old
way. This bread is excellent plain or
made into sandwiches with a filling
of butter or cream cheese
Orange Bread
2' tablespoons butter
1 cup eugar
2 eggs
1 cup milk
3 1-3 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup candied orange peel
1 cup nil's if desired
1 cup nuts if desired (I never use
them).
With a potato peeler remove the
orange rind from about six oranges,
(you can use the oranges later if
you wish). Do not pare or peel witn
blemishes or spots. Cut in thin
shreds with your kitchen shears or
ordinary s.issors. Cover with cold

water and bring to a boil. Drain and
discard water and again add cold
wat?r. bcil and discard water. Test
peel and if it is soft you are ready
:o add sugar. If not, add fresh water,
boil and discard again. Measure one
cup peel which has been well drain-
ed. add 1 cup sugar and 2-3 cup wa-
ter. Boil until thick and almost can-
died. Cool befere adding to the bat-
ter.
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs
one a: a tim? and beat well. Add
milk, then flour and baking powder
which have b:en mixed together. Stir
in candied peel and nuts if used.
Bake in baking p:wd£r cans which
'have been greased and floured. Set
in moderate oven and bake until
done, abeut one hour.
Unless you have saved some can3
since before the war. you will have
t, use something else. The only sub-
sti ute I have found to make a round
1 af is the p:st war Ball Freezer
Jar. Be sure to leave the top off
II hese when putting them in the oven.
This amount cf batter is enough for
four 25 ounce baking powder cans
or 4 quart freezer jars. This bread
is an excellent keeper in the frozen
III cker.
Date Bread
2 cups dates
1 cup boiling water
1- 2 teaspoon seda
Combine these three ingredients
i and let s and 10 minutes,
i Beat 1 egg and 1-2 cup sugar.
Sift 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking
| powder and 1-2 teaspoon salt.
11 1-2 cup nuts
13 tablespoons shortening, melted
Mix all ingredients and bake in
1 leaf in moderate oven.
Prune bread
2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar
3-4 cup sour milk
2- 3 cup molasses
2 1-2 cups whole wheat or graham
flour
1 cup white flour
1-2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sod)
1 teaspoon baking powder
4 tablespcons fat
1 cup cocked prunes
B^at eggs and sugar 5 minuter
with rotary c-r electric beater. Add
molasses, soda mixed with milk and
all ether ingredients but fat. Add
melted fat last and beat in well.
Pour into loaf pan which has be.n
well greased and floured and bake in
moderate oven covered about 45 min-
utes. Uncover and bake until done
about 15 minutes.
Boston Brown Bread
2 pints buttermilk
Seda to make milk foam (5 tea-
spoons)
1 pint syrup
1 pint cornmeal
2 1-2 pints whole wheat flour
Pinch of salt (1 teaapoon)
Floured raisins if desired
The original directions said to mix
well. I mix the molasses and milk,
then add dry ingredients which have
been combined. Stir in raisins last
h.y den’t need to be floured. Use
aboue cne bex raisins for this amount
of bread.
Pour batter into 6 baking powder
cans yhich have been well greased
and floured, or again use the Ball
Freezer jars but put the tops on this
time. S earn for three hours in a ket-
tle of water with a tight fitting lid.
Remove cans and put in slow oven for
about 15 cr 20 minutes, turning so
he bread will dry out on all sides.
This recipe for Boston Brown Bread
is almost fraditional in my own fam-
ily although I think I am the only
j one who makes if eften now. The
recipe came originally frem my fath-
| er’s sister, Mrs. Jennie B. Bruck,
whom many of you knew. My mother
hafi made it as far back as 1 can re-
mmber.
I have found if your milk isn't
very sour you need a little bit le3S
than 5 teaspoons soda. And just in
e-e^e you have forg tten, a pint equals
I 2 cups. This is also a goed keeper
II in the locker.
So, Hapny Baking.
