   6      oz            Oatmeal (preferably fine)
   2      oz            Flour
   1      t             Salt
  10      fl            Warm water
  Mix flour and salt together.  Slowly add warm water. Roll out on a floured
  board to 1/4 inch thick.  Cut into triangles.  Cook on a pan or griddle
  until golden on both sides.  Dry out in a cool oven (150 C / 300 F) until
  crisp.  -- These cakes are eaten buttered, with a glass of milk, for
  supper, but are also good with oily fish such as herring or mackerel.
  (They are also terrific with wine and cheese.)
