water. Wrap bowl in a heavy cloth. Cover and allow to stand in a warm
place overnight. In the morning remove potatoes. Add milk, water, baking
soda, salt, and shortening. Add sufficient flour to make a dough just stiff
enough to knead. Knead until smooth and elastic. Form into loaves. Place in
well-oiled pans. Cover and let rise until double in bulk. Bake in
moderate oven (400ø F) about 45 minutes. 3 loaves. Lyd Smith, Los Angeles,
