Rusks, Sweet

Oven, in the book's wordsA cool oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a cool oven”. The 300°F (150°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Cut the stale cake into slices.

  2. Divide the slices into pieces about 2 inches square.

  3. Place the pieces on a baking sheet.

  4. Dry them in a cool oven at 300°F (150°C) until crisp and brown.

  5. Store in a tin box in a dry place.

Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
