Method

Beat the eggs very, very light, the whites and yolks separately. Melt the lard or butter, and sift the baking powder into the sifted Meal and flour. Stir this into the yolks of the eggs and the milk. Blend thoroughly. Add the whites, beaten to a stiff froth. Beat well together, and bake quickly and steadily in a quick oven for about a half hour. Serve hot, with butter.
