Leviticus 2:9

And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial thereof ,.... That is, an handful of it; as of the fine flour, Leviticus 2:2 so of the pieces of that which was baked, whether in the oven, or pan, or fryingpan:

and shall burn it upon the altar ; the memorial or handful:

it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord ; See Gill on Leviticus 1:9 .
