1 Egg beaten
A little milk or water
Set oven to 450/F or Mark 8. Sift the flour and salt together into a
bowl, then rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine
breadcrumbs. Stir in the beaten egg and sufficient milk or water to

Return the Rusks to the baking sheet, cut side upwards, and cook for

wire rack. Serve with butter and jam at teatime or as a savoury with
cheese or Bloater Savoury. Suffolk Rusks store well in a tin.
