WAFER PAPER, TO PUT UNDER CAKES (a German recipe)

Take fine flour, to which put as much water as will make it beat smooth. Then by degrees add as much more as will bring it to a thin paste. Rub a baking-plate with wax, heat it, wipe off the wax, hold the tin again over the fire, then pour on it a spoonful of the flour and water, or as much as will cover the bottom thinly, and bake it merely so that it becomes dry and white.
