Ingredients
- one quart of water
- a pound of best wheat flour in a thick cloth
- a pint of new milk
- a pinch of salt
- a tablespoonful of cold water
- a tablespoonful of flour in the oven
- one tablespoonful
- salt
Directions
Tie a quarter of a pound of best wheat flour in a thick cloth, and boil it in one quart of water for three hours. If water boils away add more. Then remove the cloth, and ex- pose the flour to the air or heat until it is hard and dry. Grate from it, when wanted, one tablespoonful, which put into half a pint of new milk, and stir over the fire until it comes to a boil, when add a pinch of salt and a tablespoonful of cold water and serve. Or, brown a tablespoonful of flour in the oven, feed a few pinches at a time to a child, or mix with water and give it. Will stop summer complaint in children often when everything else fails.
