passable.

Amish Friendship Starter

Recipe By     : Heartland: The Best of the Old and the New . . .
Serving Size  : 4    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Breads

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   4      cups          all-purpose flour -- divided
   2      cups          warm water
   1                    active dry yeast (package)
   2      cups          milk -- divided
   2      cups          granulated sugar -- divided

   DAY 1:  In a glass or ceramic bowl, mix 2 cups flour, warm water and
yeast thoroughly. Leave uncovered on kitchen counter; don't refrigerate.
(You may have received one cup of starter from a friend. If so, you do not
have to make the above culture and can directly to the bread recipes,
unless you want to keep the starter going. If you do, then continue with
the following directions.)    DAYS 2, 3 and 4:  Stir well with wooden
spoon.    DAY 5:  Stir and add 1 cup milk, 1 cup flour and 1 cup sugar.
Stir well. This is called "feeding the starter."    DAYS 6, 7 and 8:  Stir
well with wooden spoon.    DAY 9:  Stir and add remaining 1 cup milk, 1 cup
flour and 1 cup sugar. Stir well.    DAYS 10 and 11:  Stir well with wooden
spoon.    DAY 12:  Ladle 1 cup starter into each of 4 containers (such as
glass jars with lids) and refrigerate. Use one in a recipe, keep one for
your use another time and give the two others to friends. Don't forget to
include recipes (including the starter) for your friends.
This recipe is from "Heartland: The Best of the Old and the New from
Midwest Kitchens" by Marcia Adams. It was reprinted in the St. Louis
Post Dispatch (mid- 1990's, exact date unknown). Part of the article appears
below.
"Some of you have learned to tame the relentless feed- and- bake,
feed- and-  bake cycle that dooms many pots of starter. When Ann Simpson of
Bridgeton makes bread, she freezes one cup of the starter for the next
batch. Be sure to let the starter come to room temperature and stir well
before using.
"Last fall, a friend gave some starter to Etta Taylor of St. Louis. 'I was
really beginning to feel disenchanted with its reproductive necessities
when I got a copy of "The Baking Sheet" from King Arthur Flour (in
Vermont),' she wrote. 'This gave me the courage just to keep a container of
this starter in the fridge (alongside my 20- year- old regular sourdough
pot!) and feed it with some sugar about every two weeks. Before I get ready
to make some more bread, I double the starter and use about 2-1/2 cups of
it for the bread recipe and return the rest to the fridge. Now I feel like
I am in control.' "

Amish Friendship Bread

Recipe By     :
Serving Size  : 1    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    :
  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                        Sourdough Starter:
   2      cups          milk
   2      cups          all-purpose flour
   1      cup           sugar
   1      pkg.           dry yeast dissolved in -- 1/4 c. warm water

In a large glass or ceramic bowl, combine 1 cup of the milk, 1 cup of the
flour, the sugar and the dissolved yeast. Using a non- metal spoon, beat
until smooth and creamy. Stir in the remaining 1 cup milk and 1 cup flour.
Cover with a clean kitchen towel and set in a moderately warm spot (about
70 degrees F.) Let stand for 24 hours, at which point the batter should
smell pleasantly sour. Transfer to a lightly covered glass or plastic
container and place in the refrigerator. Stir with a nonmetal spoon once a
day for 5 days. To use the starter, measure out what you need and let it
come to room temperature. Replenish it with equal parts of flour and milk,
plus half a part of sugar. (For example, if you remove 1 cup of starter,
stir in 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup sugar.) The starter may be
stored in the refrigerator indefinitely, but flavor develops best when
batter is used and replenished often. To keep starter longer than 14 days
without using or replenishing, put in freezer (in 1 cup portions) until
needed. AMISH FRIENDSHIP BREAD: Put 1 cup of the starter in a lightly
covered plastic container. (Do not use metal. Do not refrigerate. Keep
covered lightly.) Day 1  Find out what day it is and write it down. Day 2
Stir with wooden spoon Day 3  Stir with wooden spoon Day 4  Stir with
wooden spoon Day 5  Add 1 cup each sugar, milk, plain flour. Stir well with
wooden spoon. Day 6  Stir with wooden spoon Day 7  Stir with wooden spoon
Day 8  Stir with wooden spoon Day 9  Stir with wooden spoon Day 10 Add 1
cup each sugar, milk, plain flour. Pour 1 cup mix into 3 plastic or glass
containers. Give 2 containers to friends; keep one for starter. Add to
remaining 4th cup of starter and mix well: 2/3 cup oil 1 cup sugar 2 cups
flour 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp.
cinnamon 1 tsp. vanilla 3 eggs 1 small box instant vanilla pudding mix
Optional: Add 1 cup chopped nuts, raisins, blueberries, chopped apples,
etc. (any or a combination of the above) Pour into 2 well greased loaf pans
or 1 Bundt pan. (My tube pan worked well.) Bake at 350 degrees F. for 40-50
minutes, until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in pan 10 minutes, then
remove.

100 Whole Wheat Bread For Bread Machine
 Categories: ABM, Bread
      Yield: 8 Servings

REGULAR LOAF
      1 cup  Water
  2 1/2 cup  Wheat bread flour
  1 1/4 Tbs. Dry milk
      1 tsp. Salt
  1 1/2 Tbs. Butter
  1 1/4 Tbs. Honey
      1 Tbs. Gluten
      2 tsp. Molasses
  1 1/2 tsp. Fast Rise yeast   OR
      2 tsp. Active Dry yeast

LARGE LOAF
  1 1/2 cup  + 2 Tbs. Water
  3 3/4 cup  Wheat bread flour
      2 Tbs. Dry milk
  1 1/2 tsp. Salt
      2 Tbs. Butter
      2 Tbs. Honey
  1 1/2 Tbs. Gluten
      1 Tbs. Molasses
  2 1/8 tsp. Fast Rise yeast  OR
      3 tsp. Active Dry yeast

The trick to making 100% whole wheat bread in your machine is an extra
knead, which gives the yeast and gluten a second chance to create a
lighter loaf.  When your first knead cycle is completed, simply reset
the machine and start again.  Some manufacturers produce home
bakeries with a whole wheat cycle; if your machine doesn't have one,
this start- again method works as an easy alternative. SUCCESS HINTS:
The gluten gives the whole wheat flour the structure necessary for a
good loaf. If your market doesn't stock wheat gluten, try your local
health food store. Remember the extra knead.  It's especially
important in 100% whole wheat bread. Because of the extra knead, us
this recipe only on the regular bake cycle.
