    Brown Bread #1, Boston

    Source of Recipe

    from Lor via alicia's newsletter
    Here also is a recipe for "Boston Brown Bread" which
    is a very old recipe. I have not personally made this
    bread but I do remember my mother making it in greased
    tins, ie. fruit or vegetable tins.

    Brown Bread #1, Boston

    1 cup cornmeal
    1 cup rye flour
    1 cup graham flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon soda
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    3/4 cup molasses
    1 1/2 cups sweet milk

    Mix and sift dry ingredients.
    Mix molasses and milk and add to the dry ingredients.
    Beat thoroughly and turn into wel-greased moulds,
    filling about 2/3's full.
    Cover and steam for 3 hours.
    Remove the covers and bake the bread long enough to
    dry it off.

    Brown bread may be made in greased tins and will require
    1 1/2 to 2 hours to steam.

    *The recipe does not give oven temperature...I would
    guess 350 degrees F.
