Ingredients

  • half pounds of flour
  • a pound of lard
  • a pinch of salt
  • salt

Directions

1

One and a half pounds of flour, quarter of a pound of lard, a pinch of salt. Mix enough milk and water to make a stiff dough. Beat the dough with an axe for half an hour, until the dough is soft, or until it breaks when pulled. Machines come for the purpose, which facilitate the operation. Form into small biscuits, prick with a fork several times, and bake quickly.
