Loaf Cake

Mix one pound and a half of flour with three-quarters of a pound of moist sugar; add an ounce of caraway-seeds, and eight well-beaten eggs. Mix thoroughly one table-spoonful of yeast, a table-spoonful of milk, and a table-spoonful of water and stir these into the cake. Put the mixture on one side a little time, and when it is risen mould it lightly; put it into a well-buttered tin, and bake in a moderate oven for about two hours. Probable cost, 1s. Sufficient for eight or ten persons.
