Ingredients

  • a tablespoonful of butter
  • a pint of sweet milk
  • a cup of yeast
  • six good-sized potatoes
  • one egg

Directions

1

Boil six good-sized potatoes with their jackets on; take them out with a skimmer, drain and squeeze with a towel to ensure being dry; then remove the skin, mash them perfectly free from lumps, add a tablespoonful of butter, one egg and a pint of sweet milk. When cool, beat in half a cup of yeast. Put in just enough flour to make a stiff dough. When this rises, make into small cakes. Let them rise the same as biscuit and bake a delicate brown.

2

This dough is very fine dropped into meat soups for pot-pie.
