A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.
6 Tbsps. cornmeal
1/2 cup cold water
1 cup boiling water
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. butter
1 packet active dry yeast
1/4 cup lukewarm water
1 cup mashed potatoes
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups finely ground leached acorn meal
Grab a big bowl and mix your cornmeal with the cold water first, then add the boiling water and allow to cook for about two minute while you blend it together. Stir in your salt and butter, then let the mixture cool until it's lukewarm. With a separate bowl of lukewarm water, soften your yeast and then add with the rest of the ingredients. Knead until a sticky dough forms, then cover and let rise until it has doubled in size. Shape it into loaves and let it rise again, then bake at 375 °F for about 45 minutes.
