Needs review

Uncertain top-right marginal text: Isolated word’s reading and role are unclear; not promoted to recipe attribution or content. Candidates: “Mains”, “Mairns”.

Uncertain milk and water ingredient: Fractional quantities and final abbreviation are difficult to resolve from handwriting. Candidates: “¼ C milk & water ¾ (enough milk to amount ¾ C of.)”, “¼ C milk & water ¾ C (enough milk to amount ¾ C of.)”.

Uncertain final rolling instruction: Word after “Toss it” reads most like “all” but is uncertain. Candidates: “Toss it all when you roll it out.”, “Toss it over when you roll it out.”.

Uncertain notes: a detached upper-right cursive word with unclear reading and role Candidates: “a detached upper-right cursive word with unclear reading and role”.

Uncertain uncertainties: milk formula and marginal word remain unclear; rolling sentence resolves as Turn it over Candidates: “milk formula and marginal word remain unclear; rolling sentence resolves as Turn it over”.
