Subject: Gold Medal Bread Recipe
Phaedrus,
Please help me. I have lost my recipe for Gold Medals white bread.
Gold Medal sent it to me after they stopped putting it on their flour
bag. It's the one that is made out of Better for Bread flour. Thank
you so much for your help. I don't know what I'd do without your website.

Hi Cindi,
Is this it?

White Bread
Ingredients :
2 pkgs. active dry yeast
1 1/4 c. warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
1 c. warm water*
3 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. salt
3 tbsp. shortening
6 to 6 1/2 c. Gold Medal Better for Bread flour
Margarine or butter, softened
Preparation :
Dissolve yeast in 1 1/4 cups warm water. Stir in 1 cup warm
water, the sugar, salt, shortening, and 3 1/2 cups of the flour.
Beat until smooth. Mix in enough remaining flour to make dough easy
to handle. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until
smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl; turn
greased side up. Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled, about
1 hour. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.)
Punch down dough; divide into halves. Round up; place on lightly
floured surface. Cover with inverted bowls; let rest 15 to 20
minutes. Roll each half into rectangle, 18 x 9 inches. Fold into
thirds. Roll dough into rectangle, 13 x 8 inches, pressing out as
many air bubbles as possible. Roll up tightly, beginning at 8 inch
end. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal well; press in ends of
roll. Press each end with side of hand to seal; fold ends under.
Place loaves, seam sides down, in 2 greased loaf pans, 9 x 5 x 3
inches. Brush lightly with margarine. Let rise until double, about
1 hour. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place loaves on low rack so that
tops of pans are in center of oven. Pans should not touch each
other or sides of oven. Bake until loaves are deep golden and sound
hollow when tapped, 25 to 30 minutes. Immediately remove from pans.
Brush top of loaves with margarine; cool on wire racks. 2 loaves.
*1 cup lukewarm milk (scalded, then cooled) or warm potato liquid
can be substituted for the warm water. Cinnamon-Raisin Bread: Mix
in 1 1/2 cups raisins with the second addition of flour. Mix 1/4
cup sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Sprinkle each rectangle,
13 x 8 inches, with 1 tablespoon water and half of the sugar
mixture. Herb Bread: Stir in 2 teaspoons caraway seed, 1/2
teaspoon dried sage leaves, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg with the
first addition of flour. Parmesan-Garlic Bread: Mix 1/4 cup grated
Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon dried
oregano leaves. Sprinkle each rectangle, 13 x 8 inches, with half
of the cheese mixture. Poppy Seed-Cheese Bread: Mix in 1 cup
shredded cheese (about 4 ounces) and 2 teaspoons poppy seed with the
second addition of flour. Mix in 1 1/2 cups raisins with the second
addition of flour.

We saw a recipe for German Pancakes in a 1934 cook book . It says to
use a 10 inch spider. What is a spider?
Kathy and Tina
Hi Kathy and Tina,
Many years ago, when people cooked over a real fire, some cast-iron
skillets had legs, and were called spider skillets or just "spiders".
The legs were there so that you could set them down in a bed of coals
to cook. If you set a regular skillet directly on the coals, then the
coals would be deprived of oxygen and would lose their heat, but the
legs lifted the skillet above the coals, kept it level, and allowed
the air to circulate beneath them. There's a picture here:
Spider Skillet
Also, see the recipe below.
Phaed
Spider Dabs
a.. 1 cup cornmeal
b.. 1 tablespoon sugar
c.. 1 teaspoon salt
d.. 1 cup boiling water
e.. 1/2 cup flour
f.. 2 teaspoons baking powder
g.. 1/2 cup milk
h.. 2 medium eggs
i.. Non-Stick Spray for frying
In a good sized mixing bowl combine the cornmeal, sugar, and salt.
Add the boiling water. The cornmeal will swell up into a lumpy mess.
That is alright, don't worry about it. Stir the lumpy mess vigorously
with a whisk or fork until it is a thick dough. Let it cool down a
little bit. Add the flour, baking powder, milk and eggs. Keep stirring
the batter until it is nice and smooth. Drop the mixture by 1/4 cupfuls
onto a hot, greased skillet. Fry until the underside is golden brown,
and the top side bubbles a bit. Turn the pancakes over and continue
frying until well browned. Stack on a plate and serve with applesauce,
or Pancake Syrup. This recipe makes about 10 pancakes. I double it
when I feed my crew, (using 3 eggs instead of 4, and it turns out just
fine).
These get their name from the old fashioned name for a frying pan.
Skillets used to be called Spiders because they had legs and sat in
the fireplace. Since this recipe is so old, it was originally cooked
in a "Spider" over hot coals.
Makes 10 dabs.

Piccadilly's Pecan Delight
Serving Size: 6
Ingredients:
3 Egg Whites (room temperature, about 1/3C)
1/4 tsp. Cream Tarter
1 tsp. Vanilla
3/4 C. Sugar
1/3 C. Pecans (chopped small, lightly roasted for crust)
1/4 C. Pecans (chopped medium, topping)
1/2 C. Ritz Crackers (chopped in fine pieces, lightly roasted for crust)
12 oz Whipped Topping (Cool-Whip)
Preparation:
In a preheated oven at 350 place 1/3 C pecans and Ritz crackers
for 5 minutes. You want to lightly roast the nuts and crackers.
Watch them carefully so they do not burn. The crackers and nuts
should be a light golden in color. Remove from oven when golden
and place on paper towel until cool.
Add vanilla and cream of tarter to egg whites and beat until stiff.
Slowly add sugar and continue to beat egg whites until very stiff,
peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Fold in 1/3 C pecans and Ritz
crackers.
Place in a 10" pie pan that has been lightly sprayed with a non
stick baking spray. Spread the meringue to the sides and cover the
bottom of pan. The meringue will be about 1" - 1 1/8" thick layer
in the pie pan. Hollow out a little hole in the middle of the bottom
of the meringue the size of half a dime, this will help with a even
baking of the shell. If you have any meringue left make little nest
bake the same manor and fill with leftover pudding or fruits.
Place in a preheated oven at 275 for 1 hour. Check shell, the meringue
should not scorch, it will turn light tan in color. Turn oven off and
let shell dry in the oven for another hour. Remove shell and cool.
When shell is cool place the whipped topping in the shell and sprinkle
with 1/4 C. broken pecans. Place in refrigerator to completely chill
before serving.
