-----------
Crumpets (Plain).
---
3 cups warm milk.
1/2 cup yeast.
2 tablespoonfuls melted butter.
1 saltspoonful salt, and the same of soda, dissolved in hot water.
Flour to make good batter.
Set these ingredients - leaving out the butter and soda - as a sponge. When very light, beat in the melted butter, with a very little flour, to prevent the butter from thinning the batter too much; stir in the soda lard, fill pattypans or muffin-rings with the mixture, and let them stand fifteen minutes before baking.
This is an excellent, easy, and economical recipe.
