Heat a pint milk in a saucepan, adding half ounce concentrated yeast and a saltspoon salt. Mix well until the yeast is thoroughly dissolved; then add four ounces sifted flour and thoroughly stir till well thickened. Place the pan in a warm place to raise for thirty minutes. Add three tablespoons melted butter and stir well with a wooden spoon. Heat in a large, lightly buttered frying pan, pour the preparation into the pan and let cook for five minutes on the fire; turn it over, then set in the oven to bake for ten minutes. Remove, cut into six equal pieces and serve.
