Note 8 — THE SLEEPER AND THE WAKER.[1]
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
Arab. “Khubz Mutabbak,” = bread baked in a platter, instead of in an oven, an earthen jar previously heated, to the sides of which the scones or bannocks of dough are applied: “it is lighter than oven-bread, especially if it be made thin and leavened.” See Al-Shakúrí, a medical writer quoted by Dozy.
