Salt-Rise Bread (Authentic Prairie Recipe)
This is a very old recipe made often on the prairie by the pioneers who could not buy yeast at a store, so they had to make their own. It is a very easy recipe, but it does take a little extra time for the rising. So if you are in a hurry, this is not the recipe for you. It has a taste like sourdough and is a favorite in my family. Perfect for sandwiches!

Cook's Notes:
Make sure you peel the potatoes or the yeast will not become active.
If you are wondering if the loaves are done, carefully tip one out of the pan onto the counter and gently tap the bottom. If it sounds hollow, bread is done.
