What is a rasher????????

A rasher of bacon is a think slice, but it's an old-fashioned term, so this recipe probably comes from someone's great grandmother's recipe box! lol I also wonder how these biscuits rise. I would just use self-rising flour to be on the safe side if I were to make these.

OK, how are these biscuits supposed to rise??? Use either self-rising flour or add 1 tsp of baking powder. And why "sifted flour"?
