Salt and Cayenne (One dessertspoonful of Water)

One dessertspoonful of Water.

Put the flour on a paste-board, sprinkle in a little salt and cayenne, and rub in the cheese, grated, and the butter; mix all these together with the yolk of an egg and the water into a smooth stiff paste. Roll this out into a strip oneeighth of an inch thick and five inches long; cut this into strips of equal sizes, also some rings.

Grease a baking-sheet, put the straws and rings on it, and bake in a hot oven ten minutes till they are a pale brown.

For serving, stand the straws through the rings like a bundle of sticks.
