Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
4 slices of Allinson bread toasted, 1-1/4 pints of milk, 8 eggs, 1 oz.
of butter, sugar to taste, 2 oz. of chopped almonds, 1 teacupful of
mixed currants and sultanas and any kind of flavouring--cinammon,
lemon, vanilla, or almond essence. Crush the toast in your hands, and
soak it in the milk. Whip the eggs up, melt the butter, and add both
to the soaked toast. Thoroughly mix all the various ingredients
together. Butter a pie-dish and pour the pudding mixture into it; put
a few bits of butter on the top, and bake the pudding for 1 hour in a
moderately hot oven.

LEEK SOUP.
2 bunches of leeks, 1-1/2 pints of milk, 1 oz. of butter, 1 lb. of
potatoes, pepper and salt to taste, and the juice of 1 lemon. Cut off
the coarse part of the green ends of the leeks, and cut the leeks
lengthways, so as to be able to brush out the grit. Wash the leeks
well, and see no grit remains, then out them in short pieces. Peel,
wash, and cut up the potatoes, then cook both vegetables with 2 pints
of water. When the vegetables are quite tender, rub them through a
sieve. Return the mixture to the saucepan, add the butter, milk, and
seasoning, and boil the soup up again. Before serving, add the Lemon
juice; serve with sippets of toast or Allinson rusks.
MUSHROOM SAVOURY.
4 slices Allinson bread toast, 8 eggs, 1 pint of milk, 3 oz. of butter,
1 lb. of mushrooms, 1 small onion chopped fine, and pepper and salt to
taste. Crush the toast with your hand and soak it in the milk; add the
eggs well whipped. Peel, wash, and out up the mushrooms, and fry them
and the onion in the butter. When they have cooked in the butter for
10 minutes add them to the other ingredients, and season with pepper
and salt. Pour the mixture into a greased pie-dish and bake the
savoury for 1 hour. Serve with green vegetables, potatoes, and tomato
sauce.
CHOCOLATE MOULD.
1 quart of milk, 2 oz. of potato flour, 2 oz. of Allinson fine
wheatmeal, 1 heaped-up tablespoonful of cocoa, 1 dessertspoonful of
vanilla essence, and sugar to taste. Smooth the potato flour,
wheatmeal, and cocoa with some of the milk. Add sugar to the rest of
the milk, boil it up and thicken it with the smoothed ingredients. Let
all simmer for 10 minutes, stir frequently, add the vanilla, and mix
it well through. Pour the mixture into a wetted mould; turn out when
cold, and serve plain or with cold white sauce.
_MENU VI._
ARTICHOKE SOUP.
1 lb. each of artichokes and potatoes, 1 Spanish onion, 1 oz. of
butter, 1 pint of milk, and pepper and salt to taste. Peel, wash, and
cut into dice the artichokes, potatoes, and onion. Cook them until
tender in 1 quart of water with the butter and seasoning. When the
vegetables are tender rub them through a sieve. Return the liquid to
the saucepan, add the milk and boil the soup up again. Add water it
the soup is too thick. Serve with small dice of bread fried crisp in
butter or vege-butter.
