Directions
Soften 1 home-made yeast cake in 1 cup luke-warm water. Add about 1 cup
flour, or enough to make a sponge dough. Set in a warm place to rise until
double in bulk; then stir in enough cornmeal to stiffen. Cover board with
a thin layer of cornmeal. Onto this dump the mixture. Form into a long
roll about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and cut into cakes about 1/2 inch

sure not to let your dough get too light at any stage of the procedure.
