No. 3231 — Gingerbread without Spices

Bring 3 pounds honey to the boil, skim and cool until about as warm as freshly drawn milk. Begin beating with a wooden spatula.

After half an hour start adding 20 eggs one by one, waiting until each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Continue beating while the oven is heated.

Add enough flour to make a thick dough. Divide into 20 portions and put into prepared paper boxes. Once the flour has been added, do not beat for a long time; mix only enough to combine and immediately distribute.
