This recipe was extracted from The complete cook book (1900) by Rees, Jennie Day Mrs., page 98. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

MOTHER R.'S BUCKWHEAT CAKES. Take one quart of "lukewarm" water, or a little hot- ter (but not too hot), put a pinch of salt, and two table- spoonfuls of common molasses in this, then stir in the buckwheat flour until it is just thick enough to run off the spoon. Have ready dissolved, one-quarter cake of compressed yeast in a little warm water. Add this to the mixture, then set to rise in the kitchen near the fire, if it is freezing cold ; unless very cold let it stand on the table. In the morning add a little bit of soda

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
