No, but you might be interested in the bisket bread documentation I
entered in Ealdormere's A&S pentathlon last year:

One of the recipes I looked at was the one from Dawson's "Good Huswife's
Jewell" containing musk... is that the one you're using?

Not wanting to blow my own horn too much, but I won pent with this
bisket bread entry, so it might be worth a read ;)

Yours,
