minutes. These can be made in large quantities, as they
will keep for a month. Always heat before serving.
Pour boiling water into a pan of clabber, and let
it remain until it becomes cool, when the whey can be
poured off, or it may be turned into a colander to drain.
When it is dry, put it into a kitchen basin and work in
butter, salt, and pepper. Just before sending to the table,
moisten with cream. A nice dish for breakfast, dinner, or
tea. Mrs. Annie Lee.
Set a pan of clabber over the fire to become heated.
When the whey rises, and bubbles begin to form in the cen-
ter of the milk, remove at once, or it will become tough.
Pour into a colander and set away to drain in a cool place
until meal-time, then moisten with sweet cream and season
with salt and pepper. Some add a little sour cream as well
as sweet, and consider it quite an improvement.
