In honor of babies and people with knapsacks here is zwieback. You will
save a lot of money by making your own.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Scald the milk and when lukewarm add to the
yeast. Add the sugar, butter, salt, anise and the eggs unbeaten, and enough
flour to handle. Let rise until light. Make into 3 inch oblong rolls,
place close together in a buttered pan in rows, two inches apart. Let rise
again and bake 20 minutes. When cold cut in 1/2 inch slices and brown
evenly in the oven. If desired you can ice with a glaze made from
confectioner's sugar or dust with confectioner's sugar.
