Dad's Singing Hinnie

• 3 cups flour
• 12 teaspoon salt
• 12 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 13 cup lard or 13 cup shortening
• 34 cup golden raisin
• 12 cup candied orange peel, chopped
• 1 cup milk

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Sift flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar into mixing bowl.
3. Rub in the lard with fingertips until mixture resembles crumbs.
4. Stir in raisins and candied orange peel.
5. Stir in milk, adding enough to make soft, slightly sticky dough.
6. Turn dough onto floured board and shape into round loaf about two inches thick.
7. Work dough lightly or it will be tough.
8. Turn loaf floured side up and set on lightly greased baking sheet.
9. Bake at 400 degrees until browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (about 20 minutes).
10. Cool on a rack.
11. Just before serving, slice and spread with butter.
12. TIP: Lard gives more flavor, but shortening makes a lighter bread.
