INSTRUCTIONS
I don't have an exact recipe for this, but the dough is very much like that for gingerbread. Make into a dough, leave for a while (month?) to infuse. Form into chunky bits. Bake at ? till golden brown. (honey instead of sugar to keep it soft and 'chewy' instead of crunchy) The same dough can be used for TAAI-TAAI (tough-tough) This is usually shaped into little (or bigger) men and women, sometimes the figure of Sint Nicolaas in his full bishop's gear (mitre, staff). Brush with water and egg before baking. Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #339 From: kmeade@IDS2.IDSONLINE.COM (The Meades) Date: Thu, 12 Dec 1996 10:55:34 -0500
