CACEN DDYRNU (WELSH THRESHING CAKE)

Cacen Ddyrnu (Welsh Threshing Cake) image

From an old Welsh cake recipe collection, purchased in Wales in 1992. "Like harvest and sheep-shearing, threshing time was an occasion for feeding a hungry number of workers, and this is the cake traditionally made for it. Note the use of bacon dripping, often used in cake-making im Wales in the old days, for there was always plenty of it with bacon the most usual meat. You can of course substitute lard or vegetable fat if you wish, but the bacon fat does impart a distinctive flavour to the cake."
