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.
