RECIPES

_Bread and Cereals_

_Biscuit, Baking Powder_
For 4 persons
1 large cup flour
1 heaping teaspoonful baking powder
1 teaspoonful salt
Crisco, bacon fat or butter and lard mixed, piece size of an egg
Milk

With knife chop the fat into the dry mixture
thoroughly, add slowly the milk, stirring gently
with a spoon. Make the dough soft and spongy but
not thin enough to run. With a very little fat
grease the bottom of a pan. Drop the dough from
the end of a spoon onto the pan in quantities the
size of a Uneeda lunch biscuit and about 3/4 of an
inch thick, leaving space between them. Bake in a
reflector oven before a hot fire for 20 minutes,
or cover tight with another pan and bury in hot
ashes under a fire.

_Bread for Hikers._--1/2 white flour, 1/2 yellow meal; 1-5 powdered
milk; 1/10 powdered egg; salt and baking powder; bake in frying pan
tightly covered and buried in ashes.

_Cereals_

_Cornmeal_
1 cup meal
1 teaspoonful salt

Pour boiling water onto the meal a little at a
time, beating fast and hard. When the mixture is
the consistency of mush, cover the kettle, place
it in the outer kettle and cook all night.

Cereals prepared in this way are much more
digestible and palatable than when boiled quickly
over a hot fire and stirred constantly.

Hominy can be cooked in this way, using I cup
hominy and four cups of water; small amount of
salt.

Rice also may be cooked this way. Wash the rice
carefully, 1/2 cup to 3 cups of water, 1 scant
teaspoonful of salt.

Rolled Oats for 4 persons

Two small pieces of wood an inch thick to serve as a pot rest.
3 cups of cold water
1 teaspoonful salt
1 cup oat meal
