Then they would peal them and scrape them with a grator. Then they would put that into a cloth and two people would squeeze them. Then that was put into a clean pan and a grain of white flour was mixed with it. Then they would put cream in it, and put it to bake on a hot griddle. When it was baked it was taken up and moistened with butter. The potato-cake was made from boiled potatoes broken up by a potato-masher.
