[Sca-cooks] How much is a "dish?"

[Nancy Kiel]

I'm working on some Thomas Dawson receipts, and am unclear on what the 
amount of a "dish" of butter would be.  I don't need a redaction, but what 
it is in period.  Thanks!

Never tease a weasel!
This is very good advice.
For the weasel will not like it
And teasing isn't nice.
