And the recipe for stottie cake is:
*Ingredients*
1590g Plain flour
30g Salt
70g White Fat (Nanna used to use lard)
14g Sugar
90g Yeast
850g Water
30g Milk Powder
*Method*
Sieve all dry ingredients together and rub in the fat
Dissolve yeast in warm water, then add to ingredients and mix thoroughly
Knead for 10-15 minutes
Cover dough with a cloth and allow to stand for 30 minutes in a warm place
Knead dough again and allow to stand for a further 30 minutes
Weigh dough into 285g pieces, shape pieces into a round ball and allow
to stand for a further 10 minutes
Roll dough pieces out to a diameter of about 22cm, cover and leave in a
warm place for 20 minutes
Place on hot tray and press a shallow hole in the middle with a finger
Cook in hot oven (gas mark 8/230C/450F), turning after 8 minutes and
baking until golden brown
Allow to cool, but remember that the best way to eat a stotty is when
it's still warm and fresh from the oven spread thickly with either
butter or pease pudding.
Cheers,
Shirley T. - part of the enjoyment is the smell of the cakes cooking.
