  • About

These cakes were made in the Kentish hop gardens when hop-picking was at its height. The dough was mixed early in the day in the hut or encampment and made into small balls and fried over the camp fire at the afternoon break. This was, of course, shallow frying in lard but the little cakes are crisper if deep fried. They must be eaten very hot.
