Ingredients

  • one quart of buckwheat
  • four tablespoonfuls of yeast
  • a pint of corn meal
  • a teaspoonful of saleratfus in warm water
  • one tea- spoonful of salt
  • two eggs well beaten

Directions

1

One quart of buckwheat, half a pint of corn meal, one tea- spoonful of salt, four tablespoonfuls of yeast, and mix with warm water until the batter is the consistency of muffin bat- ter. Then beat it well for fifteen minutes, and set it in a warm place to rise over night. Have the griddle well heated before baking the cakes. If the batter should be sour in the morning, dissolve a teaspoonful of saleratfus in warm water, and stir into it, but do not beat the batter. Two eggs well beaten and added at night is an improvement.
