This recipe was extracted from A bachelors cupboard (1906) by A. Lyman Phillips, page 17. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Hard-boil as many eggs as there are to be guests — and then as many more as they agree to eat. Boil potatoes until nearly done, then drain them dry and slice into a skillet in which thin slices of bacon are crisping. In another dish shred a little salt cod, cover with boiling w^ater, and cook until the fish is tender and the water has evaporated. Add a cup of sw^eet cream to this — and if near a farm this is worth tramp- ing after. Then when the potatoes are brow^ning nicely, turn the fish and cream over them and add a little pepper

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