Baking Powders

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and heat the gem pans.

  2. In a bowl, combine the flour and salt.

  3. Add the very cold water and beat the batter rapidly to incorporate air.

  4. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot gem pans.

  5. Immediately place the pans in the oven and bake until golden.

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.
