Boston Brown Bread

The Boston Brown Bread recipe (page 196) is part of the section called "The Puritan's Feast." The feast includes the Boston Brown bread and Boston Baked beans. Miriam explains this is how Boston became known as "Beantown." The bread bakes for about 2 hours in a pan of boiling water. It is dense but not heavy and sweet from the molasses but not too sweet. I enjoyed it with some of the homemade honey butter.
