No. 345 — Speckkuchen, Another Method
English editorial translation of Molokhovets recipe No. 345 from the 1901 Russian cookbook, with historical measures, method and source.
Prepare exactly the same pork-fat filling as in recipe No. 344.
Make small yeast-dough rolls and fill them with that mixture. Melt one glass of butter, dip each roll in it and arrange them in rows, close together, in a saucepan.
Cover with a lid and allow the rolls to rise. Bake in a hot oven, then turn out onto a dish and serve.
