Salt Rising Bread. Genevieve Bardwell

I grew up eating salt risin’ bread! My grandma (Dad’s mom) made it, and after my parents married, my mom learned how to make it. I love it! My mom found someone who makes it—not bad, but it’s not my grandma’s. We ate it for breakfast and called it “bread and coffee.” We soaked the bread with coffee, poured milk and sugar on it and then a slice of cheese. I can still smell it in my grandma’s house— great memories!
