Method

Add the flour to the melted butter and blend well. Then add the hot milk, little by little, stirring. Season and add the remaining ingredients. Mix well together and pour into a greased oblong baking tin, deep enough to give the mixture the form of a loaf. Place this in a bain-marie of simmering water and cook it thus in a moderate oven (355°F, 180°C, gas 4) for 1 hour. The loaf may be served h
