Myr Bread Bread that Myria made

This is the bread the Myria made for us today. It looks wonderful and tastes even better. The recipe is the same one that my mother taught me and she got from her mother and her, from hers. Myr is the for sure the fifth generation making this recipe, possibly more. It has only six ingredients and we can make several different size batches from two to six loaves. Myr usually makes four.

It's closest comparison would be a French bread, but it's not as hard. It's not sweet because the 1/4 cup sugar Myr puts in is twice as much as she really needs. This is her second batch this week because she wants to practice. She tried to make some for Grandma and Grandpa in Madison and it didn't turn out (she put the air hole in after the last raise rather than before).

Next time, it will be perfect. And she does it all without a recipe now, so she will really rock.

That is fantastic. Making bread is one of the most connecting things I know to do.
