5 cups flour
1 cup tuba
3 cups sugar
20 eggs (yolk only)

Pour the tuba into the flour. Add the salt. Mix well.

Add the sugar gradually into the egg yolks while beating well. Add the oil, and put into a pan lined with paper and greased with butter or oil. Add anise. Wait for 7 hours before baking (to allow the batter to rise). However, if the weather is cold, wait for 8 hours before baking.
