water and add more water, if necessary, to make 1 1/2 pints. Combine with
the rest of the ingredients, using enough flour to make a rather stiff
batter. Cover and let rise in a warm place until morning. Knead in the
morning, adding as much flour as is necessary. Let rise again. Spread on
well-greased tins and when light (about 1-1/4 hours) brush melted butter
over top. Strew with "rivels" made by combining 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup
flour, and 2 Tbsp butter.
