To Make Long-biscuit Recipe
Take thirty Eggs, (the Whites of fourteen (break twenty eight of
them; beat them very well with two Spoonfuls of Rose-Water; then put
in three Pound of sifted Sugar, and beat it all the while the Oven
is heating; then dry two Pound and a Quarter of fine Flower, let it
be cold before you put it in, and put in the two Eggs left out; stir
it well, and drop it. It must have a very quick Oven. Bake it almost
as fast as you can fill your Oven; the Papers must be laid on
Tin-Plates, or they will burn at the Bottom. This fame Biscuit was
the Queen's Seed-Biscuit. Put to half this Quantity half a Pound of
Caraway-Seeds, and bake it in large square Tin-Pans, buttering the
Pans: It bakes best in a cool Oven, after the Drop-Biscuit is baked.
