We have a recipe that s good if we can dig it out I will send it. We tried a few times before we got it to work and found out that if we put the dough next to the wood stove for about a day it let the natural yeast take hold. We was unable to find it in the stores around here. I remember when the Omar man used to have it on his truck I think that dates me.

Go down to the "Older Messages" section below these current threads, go into the "Kitchen (Baking)" category, do a search on your subject. To do a search, use the "Ctrl" and "F" (for find) keys together, enter "salt", search and keep searching (find next) until you've reached the end.

We ran across salt risen bread in a gift shop in Nashville, Indiana.

Try Don's advice. I posted a couple of recipes a year or 2 ago. I had not actually tried them, but they were from cookbooks of many, many years ago in "Salt-rising" country - weswtern NY. GL!
