Mrs. John C. Berryman

  1 cup of yeast,

  1 quart of flour,

  1 teaspoon of lard,

  1 teaspoon of salt,

  1 teaspoon of granulated sugar,

  1/2 pint of water.

Put the yeast, lard, salt, and sugar in the flour, then the water. Work till it
blisters, which will take from 15 to 20 minutes. Put in a little lard on top and
put in a wooden bowl. Let it rise from 5 to 6 hours, then make out into rolls.
Let them rise for 1 1/2 hours, then bake in a quick oven.

If for loaves , they will require 2 hours for second rising and a moderate oven
for baking.
