| Title |
Baking bread in a pot oven. |
| |
| Description |
When my mother would be goin' to bake a cake, the first thing she did was put on a good turf fire, a big fire and then while she was selecting and mixing, measuring soda, flour, salt, whatever, when the fire would come up good, she would take, she would've hung the oven on the fire; but it wouldn't have got too hot and she would take the lid off the oven then, put it on the good fire and then when she put the cake in the oven, the lid would be hot and she set it on the oven and put the coals up on the lid and then when you put so many coals up on the lid you took from the heat of the fire because you didn't want, you couldn't have the fire too big, y'know? Then by the time that the cake was baked it was crusted on top and bottom. And tasted nice.
