Historical transcription

Source method

  1. 1

    One pound of fine flour, sifted; one teaspoonful of baking-powder; one pound of sugar, sifted; four large eggs; three ounces of citron; the grated rind of one lemon; one grated nutmeg; one teaspoonful of cinnamon; one scant teaspoonful of ground cloves. Mix the baking-powder and spices and sift with the flour, then work in the beaten eggs and sugar; form into small balls and bake in a slow oven. Place in a pan sufficiently far apart to allow them to swell to the size of macaroons when baked.

Nutrition pending

No invented nutrition numbers.

WorkLife will publish nutrition and scalable serving quantities only after this historical transcription receives a measured modern adaptation.
