Place 2 oven racks in the upper lower thirds of the
oven. Preheat oven to 300F. Sprinkle the dry yeast or
crumble the compressed yeast over the water (110F if
dry, 100F if compressed). Add the pinch of sugar
allow yeast to sit in a draft-free spot for 10-20 min.

The mixture should be full of bubbles. If not, the
yeast is too old to be useful. Stir well to dissolve
the yeast. In a large bowl, place all the dry
ingredients stir well to blend them. Add the yeast
mixture 3 c broth. Using your hands, in the bowl,
mix to form the dough, adding more broth if needed to
make the dough smooth supple. Half a batch at a
time, knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured
counter. (Keep the 2nd batch of dough covered with a
moist towel while shaping and cutting the first.) Roll
out the dough into 18 x 13 x 1/4-inch rectangle. Cut
into desired shapes using 3 1/2 inch bone cutter or 2
1/2 inch cookie cutter. Reroll the scraps. Repeat
procedure with remaining dough. For an attractive
shine, lightly beat together the egg and the milk.

Brush the glaze on the cookies. Bake for 45 – 60
minutes or until brown firm. For even baking,
rotate the cookie sheets from top to bottom 3/4 of the
way thru the baking period. Use a small, angled metal
spatula to transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool
completely. Store in an airtight container at room
temp. -cracked wheat kelp are available at most
health food stores -Use 2 cups of bran cereal (not
flakes) in place of the cracked wheat, if desired. If
your dog is large, make larger cookies Allow the
cookie sheets to cool completely before using for the
next batch Distribute cookies evenly around sheet;
