  1. a pound of sugar

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.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. quarter of a pound of sugar.
  2. Work the whole well, roll the paste out thin, and make the whigs of what form you please.
  3. When done, set them on tin plates before the fire till they rise again, and then bake them in a quick oven.
  4. The paste may also be made into a single cake, with or without comfits or caraways.
