Do you really want to try this at home? OK! Here is the translated recipe, converted from the original which you can always find at the end of the video ^_^. Thank you for watching! "To make a rich Seed-Cake called the Nun's Cake" - The Art of Cookery, 1805 2 cups flour 3/4 cup sugar 3 whole eggs + 2 yolks A little over 1 cup of softened butter (1 & 1/8 cup) 2 tablespoons of caraway seeds 1 tablespoon of cinnamon OR 1 tsp of cinnamon extract (extract is what the original recipe calls for) A dash of rose water, to taste In a mixing bowl combine your flour, sugar, cinnamon and caraway seeds. Separately whisk your whole eggs & egg yolks then strain through a fine mesh strainer (random fact - mesh strainers in this time were made with horse hair!). In another bowl now mash the butter with your hands till it is soft and has the appearance of cream. Into this add your strained eggs and blend well with rose water. Pour half of your wet ingredients into your flour mixture and work well before adding in the remaining half. If using your hands or a spoon blend for 2 HOURS. If using an electric mixture mix for half an hour on a medium speed. If your batter seems to be dry add more rose water or milk to moisten. Pour into a well buttered mold and bake at 300 degrees for 2-3 hours depending on the size of the mold. Once the top has cracked and a toothpick comes out clean it is done. *Now, sometimes flour in the early 1800s had a higher moisture content than today's flour. Because of that this recipet calls for you to dry it before a fire. This is not required when using modern processed flour. *The original receipt asks you to mix it for 2 hours with your hands, not a spoon. Isn't that just lovely?

My mother (b. 1923, d. 2016) was the eldest child and had to bake biscuits every morning. This was in the South, and they took biscuits to school. Her recipe was made from scratch. She would tear open a brown paper bag, flour it, and use the inside surface to roll out the dough. Then she dipped the rim of a drinking glass in flour and used it to cut out the biscuits. I only tried to make them myself once and they came out flat and hard! I guess I handled the dough too much, or something! 😊

The first time we hear Justine talking in a cooking video and it's out of frustration. Luckily, cinnamon makes everything better. I'm sure in a larger kitchen, everyone took turns beating the cake. And to think when I was younger I used to hate having to stir something for 50 strokes. I will say the density of the cake stood up well to your beautiful chicken mold.
