Instructions (4)
  1. Set a sponge with one quart of half milk half water, as hot as you can comfortably bear the back of your hand in, not quite 2oz. of yeast creamed with a teaspoonful of sugar, and just enough fine sifted flour to make a nice dough.
  2. Let it stand for an hour by the fire to rise (it must be very light).
  3. Shape it into rounds, and bake in rings on a heavily floured board.
  4. Cover lightly with a blanket and leave in a warm corner to “prove” or rise, i.e., until the top is risen in a kind of dome shape.

Stillroom Rolls.—Just at bedtime set a sponge with one quart of half milk half water, as hot as you can comfortably bear the back of your hand in, not quite 2oz. of yeast creamed with a teaspoonful of sugar, and just enough fine sifted flour to make a nice dough.

Cover lightly with a blanket and leave in a warm corner to “prove” or rise, i.e., until the top is risen in a kind of dome shape. Now
