Raised Wheat Waffles.
1 pint of flour.
3 gills of milk.
1/8 cupful of yeast.
1 tablespoonful of sugar.
2 tablespoonfuls of butter.
1/2 teaspoonful of salt.
1 egg.
Boil the milk, and, after adding the butter to it, let the mixture stand until cool. Put the flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add the milk and yeast, and beat well for fifteen minutes, or even twenty. Let this batter rise over night. In the morning add the egg, well beaten. Have the waffle-irons hot and well greased, and cook the cakes quickly. They should be served the moment they come from the irons. They will be sufficiently cooked as soon as they are browned on both sides.
