Sally Lunn Recipe
To two pounds of fine flour put about two table-spoonfuls of fresh yest,
mixed with a pint of new milk made warm. Add the yolks of three eggs,
well beat up. Rub into the flour about a quarter of a pound of butter,
with salt to your taste; put it to the fire to rise, as you do bread.
Make it into a cake, and put it on a tin over a chaffing-dish of slow
coals, or on a hot hearth, till you see it rise; then put it into a
quick oven, and, when the upper side is well baked, turn it. When done,
rasp it all over and butter it; the top will take a pound of butter.
