3 eggs

4 cups sour milk (4 tsp. vinegar to 4 cups milk)
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tbl. baking powder
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
7–8 cups flour
1. Add baking soda to the sour milk.
2. Mix sugar, shortening, eggs, and salt in a large bowl.
3. Add sour milk and soda mixture.
4. Sift flour, baking powder, and nutmeg into the previous ingredients. 5. Mix until easy to handle.
6. Roll to about a 1/2 inch thickness (as if for biscuits) then cut with a doughnut cutter.
7. Add flour as necessary to prevent excessive stickiness.
8. Fry in deep fat at 350 degress until brown on one side.
9. Turn and brown the other side.
10. These are good plain, but can be coated with powdered sugar while warm.
