Mrs. Elizabeth Ovenstad's bread from Beard on Bread by James A. Beard

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I did not find this bread to be the amazing achievement that so many of the other recipes are in Beard on Bread. And I disagree that it should be baked for a full hour. The crust was turning black and so hard that it rivalled the well-soaked wheat berries which were also too hard. Try Cracked-Wheat Bread, or Maryetta's Oatmeal Bread, or Gingerbread--all longtime favorites from this wonderful cookbook.
