Batter Cakes

Make a batter of one quart each of flour and sour milk, three eggs beaten separately, a table-spoon of butter, and two level teaspoons soda. Pulverize the soda very fine before measuring, then thoroughly mix with the flour. Add whites of eggs just before baking on the griddle. Sweet milk may be used (with the other ingredients in same quantity) with Horsford's Bread Preparation, one measure each of soda and acid, which must be thoroughly mixed with the flour. These may also be made without eggs.
