Steak and Other Meats
Ingredients
Directions
The book says “a hot oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.
Soak the whole grains overnight in water.
In the morning, add coarse sea salt and simmer until soft.
Ensure there is enough water to cook the grains without adding more.
Once the water has evaporated and the grains are soft, remove from heat.
Mash the grains until they form a pulpy mass.
Place the pulpy mass into gem pans.
Bake in a hot oven at 400°F (200°C) until baked through.
Serve with butter or as ordinary bread.
