A historical recipe

The Economical Jewish Cook: A Modern Orthodox Recipe Book for Young Housekeepers, by May Henry, Edith B. Cohen (1897). Project Gutenberg eBook #54045.

Ingredients 1 ingredient

  1. 1 oz. butter

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.

Method

  1. Peel the mushrooms, put them in a pie-dish with 1 oz.
  2. butter, pepper and salt, and bake about 20 minutes.
