Ingredients: 3 eggs, 300 g. flour, 300 g. sugar, 100 g. lard, a teaspoon of baking powder or baking soda, lemon rind.
Preparation: Mix the eggs with the sugar, the lard, the flour, the baking powder or soda and the lemon rind. Knead the dough by hand. The heat of the hands favours the lard melting and oxygenates the dough; it also makes it easier to incorporate the flour in order to achieve a very smooth dough. Oil and flour a rectangular baking-pan and put the dough in. Cook in oven for about 45 minutes and sprinkle with sugar before serving.
