Ingredients. - Pastry trimmings, jam, castor sugar.

Method. - Knead the trimmings lightly into a smooth round ball and roll out very thinly, keeping the shape as square as possible. Spread jam evenly over one-half, fold the other half over, wet the edges, and press them lightly together. Brush over with water, dredge well with castor sugar, and with the back of knife blade mark the paste across in lines about one inch apart. Bake for about twenty minutes in a moderate oven, and when cold cut the paste into strips. If preferred, currants, with the addition of a little sugar and shredded candied peel, may be used instead of jam.
