A Shrove Tuesday tradition.

Scald the milk and set aside to cool to lukewarm. To the dissolved
yeast add 1/2 cup of flour and mix to a batter. Add to the milk.
Stir in 1 ts sugar and about 3 cups flour. Set in a warm place to
rise over night. In the morning, add the well-beaten eggs, nutmeg,

rise again, and then fry in hot fat until golden brown.
