Add also a pinch of salt.
If milk is not plentiful, prepare one pint of milk and dip each slice of toasted bread quickly in a bowl of hot water; place in a deep dish and quickly pour over the hot milk, to which a tablespoonful of butter has been added, and serve at once.
BREAD AND ROLLS Bread, called the "Staff of Life," on account of its nutritive value, should head the list of foods for human consumption.

Bread making should stand first in the "Science of Cooking," as there is no one food upon which the comfort, health and well-being of the average family so largely depends as upon good bread.

There is absolutely no reason why the housewife of the present day should not have good, sweet, wholesome, home-made bread, if good yeast, good flour and common-sense are used.

The milk or water used to mix with flour for making bread sponge should be lukewarm.

If too hot, the loaves will be full of holes and coarse grained.
