Graham Gruel
491. You can make graham gruel. If the graham flour is too coarse,
sift it, and while the gruel is hot, add milk. This will make a most
palatable and healthful dish for the campground.—

To Take the Place of Flesh Meat
492. When flesh food is discarded, its place should be supplied
with a variety of grains, nuts, vegetables, and fruits, that will be both
nourishing and appetizing.... The place of meat should be supplied
with wholesome foods that are inexpensive.—

Part 3—Bread
The Staff of Life
493. Religion will lead mothers to make bread of the very best
quality.... Bread should be thoroughly baked, inside and out. The
health of the stomach demands that it be light and dry. Bread is the
real staff of life, and therefore every cook should excel in making
it.—
Manuscript 34, 1899
Religion in a Good Loaf
494. Some do not feel it is a religious duty to prepare food properly;
hence they do not try to learn how. They let the bread sour before
[316]
baking, and the saleratus added to remedy the cook’s carelessness
makes it totally unfit for the human stomach. It requires thought and
care to make good bread. But there is more religion in a good loaf of
bread than many think.—[
