How To Make Pancakes

Mix some flour with a little water, and then beat fix or eight eggs into a quart of milk; stir them well together, and if the batter is not thick enough, add more flour. This done, mix in two tea-spoonfuls of ginger, a glass of brandy, and a little salt. Put a bit of butter into a frying-pan, or flew pan, and when it is melted, a ladle-full of batter, taking care to move the pan so as to make it cover the bottom. When it is done on one side toss it on the other, or turn it in the best manner you can. Fry the other side, and slide it into a dish lying before the fire. Proceed in the same manner to make the rest. Send them to the table with su-gar strewed over them.

Take eight eggs, and beat them well into a pint of cream; then mix it with half a pound of good fresh butter melted, a grated nutmeg, and a little salt. This done, stir in flour enough to make a thin batter. Make it into pancakes as before, and turn them on the back of a plate. They must fry no longer than just to give them a colour.

Afterwards add three or four spoonfuls of flour, nine eggs well beaten, some sugar, and a little salt. When the batter is made, fry them as above.
