Parker House Rolls. Mrs. Charles Moore
Rub one-half teaspoon of lard and one-half of butter into two quarts of sifted flour. Into a well in the center of flour, one pint cold boiled milk, and add one-half cup yeast or one cake dry yeast, dissolved in one-half cup warm water, one-half cup sugar, and a little salt. Set at one o’clock [ten p.m. for dinner next day?]; make up at two o’clock, and put in pans at half past four for six o’clock tea. Keep in warm place.
