[radio] Goody good morning, you lovely ladies!
-
This is your friendly chef bringing you
your daily baking recipe.
-
And this one takes the cake.
-
Today we're baking a delicious,
tasty gingerbread. Yes we are!
-
Are we ready cookies?
-
Uh huh. I'm ready!
-
Good.
-
First we break one egg, and I'm not yolking.
-
Now, three cups of flour,
-
two cups of milk,
-
four cups of sugar,
-
and then just a bit of salt.
-
Hey, not so much!
-
Add a dash of ginger.
-
Now, some mustard, cider,
vinegar, salt, vanilla,
-
nutmeg, pepper, malt, sugar, spice,
that'll suffice,
-
and a cake of yeast.
-
Now, beat it.
-
Oh not you, the batter.
-
Fast. Faster. Faster. Faster. Faster.
Faster. Faster. Faster. Faster. Faster.
-
Stop!
-
Pour batter into ginger bread mold.
-
Place in oven.
-
Bake at three hundred fifty degrees
for thirty minutes.
-
And now, relax.
-
Simple as pie, isn't it?
-
Skill with a skillet is how you fill it.
-
Well, that's all for today.
-
Listen in tomorrow for your friendly chef
-
with his daily tips on how to raise the dough.
