Default English Muffin Bread

> Scald the milk and let cool until warm (110F).>

I heard on one of the cooking shows that scalding milk is no longer
necessary, as all milk now is pasteurized. I suppose one has to still keep
it in the recipe for those in the country who are taking their milk right
from the barn or buying it locally from the neighbors' barns.
