A historical recipe

From an old book: a historical recipe, not current advice. Its methods, additives and storage may be unsafe by today's standards.
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.
