Ingredients & Directions


3 c Unbleached white flour
1 1/2 ts Salt
3 tb Wheatgerm
1 tb Dry yeast

In a bowl, stir together 3 c flour with salt & wheatgerm. Combine the
yeast & the water & set aside till the yeast starts to work.

Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients & pour in the yeast &
