      Title: Pitcher Mountain Blueberry Bread
 Categories: Breads, Camping
      Yield: 1 Loaf
 
    1/4 c  Yellow corn meal
      1 c  Water; boiling
      1 tb Oil
    1/4 c  Molasses
      1 tb Active yeast
      1    Egg; beaten
    1/4 c  Water; lukewarm
      3 c  Whole wheat or white flour
      2 c  Blueberries
 
  After spending an entire day eating and picking blueberries on top of
  Pitcher Mountain in Stoddard, New Hampshire, I experimented with ways
  to use the 4 quarts of berries that I had picked. For days everything
  I prepared--salads, cereal, omelets, and even soups--was speckled
  with blue, which resulted in a temporary glowing, purple smile for
  all who indulged in my concoctions.
  
  One of my favorites was the following bread in which the blueberries
  explode while the bread is baking and blend wonderfull with the
  yellow corn meal.
  
  Stir corn meal into boiling water until mixture thickens. Remove from
  heat and add oil, molasses, and egg.
  
  Dissolve yeast, add to corn meal.
  
  Add remaining flour and knead 10 minutes.
  
  Cover and let dough rise until doubled in bulk.
  
  Punch dough down flat and sprinkle blueberries on top.
  
  Roll up dough with blueberries inside.
  
  Cover and let rise again (45 minutes).
