This is an old recipe that got its name from a fisherman’s wife named Anna. Because she was lazy and he had to bake the bread, he called it Annadama bread.

Ingredients

¾ cup boiling water
½ cup yellow cornmeal
3 tbsp shortening
¼ cup light molasses
2 tsp salt
1 pkg dry yeast
¼ cup warm water (110 – 115 degrees)
1 egg, beaten
2¾ cups sifted Stone-Buhr unbleached bread flour

Instructions

Stir together boiling water, cornmeal, shortening, molasses, and salt. Cool to lukewarm. Sprinkle yeast on warm water; stir to dissolve. Add yeast, egg, and 1¼ cups flour to cornmeal mixture. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes. With a spoon, beat and stir in remaining flour until batter is smooth.

Grease 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and sprinkle with a little cornmeal and salt. Spread batter in pan. With a floured hand, gently smooth top and shape loaf. Cover and let rise until batter just reaches the top of the pan, about 1½ hours.

Bake at 375 degrees for 25 to 35 minutes or until done. Remove from pan and cool on rack before serving.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.
