2 tsp salt                                                               1 cup buttermilk
3/4 tsp soda                                                          5 cups buckwheat flour
                                       1 yeast cake

Scald milk and cool to lukewarm; add yeast cake softened in the water, salt and flour to make a rather thick batter. Beat well and let rise overnight. In the morning, add the soda dissolved in the buttermilk. Bake on a hot, greased griddle and serve with butter and syrup.
