Boil and mash potato till it's free from lumps. Sift flour, salt and baking powder together. Add potatoes and rub in shortening. Mix to a light dough with the egg and milk, roll out a little thinner than an ordinary biscuit; bake in a hot oven (425 degrees) for 10-15 minutes till brown. Serve as soon as they are done.

Many of the recipes in this collection did not contain amounts or oven temperatures. I have typed them in as they appear in the book, typos and all.
