COOKING THE COLLECTION: Clove Cake
The Library's Dig Into The Archives series recently took a look at historical recipes. We wondered what the food would taste like, so we created a series called Cooking the Collection on the Haverblog and on the college’s official Facebook page, featuring some of these old-timey sweets.
Clove cake, an aromatic, almost bread-like dessert that’s best eaten warm. Recipes have been modified with modern measurements and instructions, and have easy-to-follow, step-by-step videos. Photo: Patrick Montero
