Buttermilk Bread

Take one quart of buttermilk, set it over the fire until it is scalded (but not boiling), then stir in flour enough to make it thick as for griddlecakes, and set it in a warm place to rise; when it is light, put in one-half teaspoonful of soda, and as much salt, stir or knead it again and let it rise. When light, knead and put into loaves, and when it has come up again, bake.
