The 1918 Fanny Farmer Cookbook  
1
/2 cup lukewarm  
water  
1
/2 teaspoon salt  
1
3/4 cups buckwheat  
flour  
1
tablespoon molasses  
Pour milk over crumbs, and soak thirty minutes; add salt, yeast cake dissolved in lukewarm  
water, and buckwheat to make a batter thin enough to pour. Let rise over night; in the  
morning,  
stir well, add molasses, one−fourth teaspoon soda dissolved in one−fourth cup lukewarm  
water,  
and cook same as griddle−cakes. Save enough batter to raise another mixing, instead of using  
yeast cake; it will require one−half cup.

A waffle−iron should fit closely on range, be well heated on one side, turned, heated on  
side, and thoroughly greased before iron is filled. In filling, put a tablespoonful of mixture in  
other  
each  
compartment near centre of iron, cover, and mixture will spread to just fill iron. If sufficiently  
heated, it should be turned almost as soon as filled and covered. In using a new iron, special  
care must be taken in greasing, or waffles will stick.
