- Oaten bread was used long ago, but not now. The oaten bread was real hard and thin. They used to mix it with flour and then put a little of salt and soda in it. The oaten bread used not rise, because they used not put much soda in it. The crust was real hard.
They used water to mix the bread, and butter-milk when they would have it. After one day the oaten bread would be real stale, and it was hard for the old people to eat it. It was made from white oats and black oats.- Collector
