The derivation from ‘K̲h̲aṭâî,’ of Cathay or China is correct. […] Recipes for making ‘Nuncaties’ are given in many Indian cookery books, but there is no special mention in any of them of Mr. Weir’s six ingredients; and ‘leaven produced from toddy’ does not, so far as I know, enter into the composition of these cakes at all.
