1929 Scottish Tantallon Cakes Recipe - Old Cookbook Show - Glen And Friends Cooking
Today on the Old Cook Book Show we tackle another old Scottish recipe and try to lay to rest a myth of Scottish cooking... Prior to WW2 Scottish cooking included a lot of Rice, and a lot of Rice flour.

Tantallon Cakes
(Old Edinburgh Recipe)
Flour, rice flour, butter, sugar, bicarbonate of soda, lemon, eggs.

Mix together four ounces of flour, four ounces of rice flour, and a pinch of bicarbonate of soda. Cream four ounces of butter with four ounces of sugar. Beat two eggs and add these alternately with the flour to the butter and cream. Flavour with lemon. Make into a stiff dough, roll out thinly, and cut with a small scalloped round into biscuits. Bake for half an hour in a fairly hot oven. When cool, dust them with fine white sugar.
