THE ROYAL BAKER AND PASTRY COOK 9 Qerman Waffles. — 1 quart flour, tea- spoon salt, 3 tablespoons sugar, 2 large teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, 2 tablespooni^ lard, rind of 1 lemon, grated, 1 teaspoon extract cinna- mon, 4 eggs, and 1 pint thin cream.

The griddle cake as made to-day with Royal Baking Powder is another arti- cle of food which has taken high rank upon the American table. The heavy, sour, grease-soaked, indigestible griddle cake of old is, where modem methods are employed, a thing of the past. The properly made griddle cake is a delicious food, healthful, appetizing, and nutritious. Raising the griddle cake with yeast is alto- gether obsolete with expert cooks. Mixtures of soda, saleratus, sour milk, buttermilk, etc., are likewise not permissible. Royal Baking Powder has altogether redeemed the griddle cake. It makes the cake light, tender, digest- ible, and its preparation and baking are the work of a moment only. Royal Baking Powder, plain, sweet milk, flour, and a little salt make a food fit for a feast. What .so simple, so easUy prepared? Eggs are altogether unessential. The batter must be thin, the cakes made small and not too thick, — about a good Vk inch thick when baked, — browned, and neatly turned. The griddle must be merely mbbed with grease, not grease-soaked. This is highly important. Take a thick piece of salt pork on a fork, or a lump of suet in a piece of cheese-cloth, and mb lightly over the hot grid- dle and pour the batter on immediately. Remember that buckwheat is one of the most difficult flours to lighten. Where it en- ters into combination with other materials this fact must be recognized and a somewhat larger proportion of Royal Baking Powder allowed. Made in the manner directed in these receipts buckwheat cakes can be safely and profusely eaten by every one. Royal Wheat Cakes. — This is the best plain hot griddle cake without eggs. The cakes will be light, tender, and healtMul. 1 quart flour, 3 teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, Vk teaspoon salt. Sift well together and add sweet milk to make into a soft batter. Bake immediately on hot griddle. Should be full Vk inch thick when baked. Smother with butter and maple symp or honey. Qriddle Cakes with Eggs.— 3 cups flour, 2 teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, 1 teaspoon salt.
