Dr. Allinson's cookery book, comprising many valuable vegetarian recipes
Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
4 oz. of ground rice, 4 eggs, 1 pint of milk, jam, some sifted sugar,
and powdered cinnamon; butter or oil for frying. Make a batter of the
milk, eggs, and ground rice. Fry thin pancakes of the mixture,
sprinkle them with sugar and cinnamon, place a dessertspoonful of jam
on each, fold up, sprinkle with a little more sugar; keep hot until
all the pancakes are fried, and serve them very hot. When the pancakes
are golden brown on one side, they should be slipped on a plate,
turned back into the frying-pan, and fried brown on the other side.
MACARONI PANCAKES.
2 oz. of macaroni, 1/2 pint of milk, 3 eggs, 3 oz. of Allinson fine
wheatmeal, sugar to taste, the grated rind of a lemon, butter, and 1
whole lemon. Throw the macaroni into boiling water and boil until
quite soft; drain it and cut it into pieces 1 inch long. Make a batter
of the eggs, meal, and milk, add the lemon rind, sugar, and the
macaroni; fry pancakes of the mixture, using a small piece of butter
not bigger than a walnut for each pancake. Sift sugar over the
pancakes and serve them very hot with slices of lemon.
MINCEMEAT.
1 lb. of apples, 1 lb. of stoned raisins, 1 lb. of currants, 6 oz. of
citron peel, 3 oz. of blanched almonds, 1/2 lb. butter. Chop the fruit
up very finely, add the almonds cut up fine, oil the butter and mix
well with the fruit. Turn the mincemeat into little jars, cover
tightly, and keep in a dry and cool place.
MINCEMEAT (another).
1 lb. each of raisins, apples, and currants, 1/2 lb. of butter, 1/2
lb. of blanched and chopped almonds, 1/2 lb. of moist sugar, the juice
of 4 lemons, and 1/2 lb. of mixed peel. Wash and pick the currants,
wash and stone the raisins, peel, core, and quarter the apples, and
cut up the mixed peel; then mince all up together, and add the chopped
almonds. Melt the butter, mix it thoroughly with the fruit, fill it
into one or more jars, cover with paper, and tie down tightly.
ORANGE FLOWER PUFF.
1/2 pint of milk, 3 eggs, 4 ozs. of Allinson fine wheatmeal, and 2
tablespoonfuls of orange water, some butter or oil for frying. Make a
batter of the milk, eggs (well beaten), and meal, add the orange
water, and fry the batter in thin pancakes, powder with castor sugar,
and serve.
ORANGE SYRUP.
The rind of 3 oranges, 1/2 pint of water, 4 oz. of sugar. Boil the
ingredients until the syrup is clear, then strain it and pour over the
fruit.
ORANGES IN SYRUP.
Peel 6 oranges, carefully removing all the white pith. Put the rinds
of these into 1/2 pint of cold water; boil it gently for 10 minutes.
Strain, and add to the water 6 oz, of loaf sugar. Boil it until it is
a thick syrup, then drop into it the oranges, divided in sections,
without breaking the skins. Only a few minutes cooking will be needed.
The oranges are nicest served cold.
