INSTRUCTIONS
SPONGE: Put potatoes, cornmeal, sugar, salt and boiling water in 1/2 gal glass jar and stir. Set, uncovered, in warm spot overnight. Next day, strain off foam, keep the liquid and discard the rest. BREAD: Bring milk to a simmer and add Crisco, baking powder and soda. Blend in sponge. Put in large bowl, add enough flour to make a stiff batter which is still pliant enough to beat. Set in a warm place to rise to double. Add a little more flour to make dough stiff enough to shape into 3 loaves and let double. Bake at 350 for about an hour.
