Directions
Stir together flour, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, and 1½ teaspoon salt. Mix rum and ⅓ cup water. Combine molasses and soda.
Cream sugar and butter; add half the dry ingredients and half the water mixture, then half the molasses mixture, blending well after each addition. Repeat. Chill dough for several hours or overnight.
On well-floured surface, roll dough ¼ inch thick; cut with a 4-inch cutter or 1-pound coffee can.
Bake on greased cookie sheet at 375℉ (190℃) F for 10 to 12 minutes. (Watch carefully so cookies don't burn.) Let stand a few minutes; then remove from cookie sheet.
