Holiday Dog Biscuits
Don't Forget Fido
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, approximately
- 2 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1 cup rye flour
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 2 cups cracked wheat (bulgar)
- 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
- 1 Tbs. salt (or less)
- 1 package dry yeast dissolved in 1/2 cup warm water (105-115)
- 1 pint chicken stock or other liquid (approximately)
- 1 egg, beaten, mixed with 1 Tbs. milk
In large bowl combine the dry ingredients. Add dissolved yeast and chicken stock or other liquid. Mix together. Knead for about 3 minutes into a stiff dough. Roll the dough into 1/2 inch sheets. Cut with cookie cutters into stars, circles, trees, bears, cats, and rabbits, any one of which should pleasure your discriminating dog. Place on a baking sheet. Since there is no need to let them rise beforehand, I put the biscuits directly into a 300 degree oven for 45 minutes, turn off the heat, and leave them overnight. In the morning they are bone-hard and guaranteed to clean a dog's teeth.
