Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
8 breakfastcupfuls of Allinson breadcrumbs, 3 eggs, 2 lbs. of
tomatoes, 2 finely chopped onions, 1/2 oz. of butter, pepper and salt
to taste, a little boiling milk; 1 dessertspoonful of finely chopped
parsley. Cut the tomatoes into slices, and stew them gently with 1 oz.
of the butter, the onions and seasoning for 10 minutes, then add the
parsley. Soak the breadcrumbs with enough hot milk to just moisten
them through, add the eggs beaten up. Grease a pie-dish, place in it
first a layer of breadcrumbs, then one of tomatoes and so on until
full, finishing with breadcrumbs. Put the rest of the butter in little
bits on the top of the pie, and bake it until lightly brown.
SAVOURY CUSTARD.
1 quart of milk; 6 eggs, 6 oz. of grated cheese, Parmesan is the best,
but any kind of cooking cheese can be used; 1/2 a saltspoonful of
nutmeg, pepper and salt to taste. Heat the milk; meanwhile whip the
eggs well, and mix the cheese and seasoning with them. Mix well with
the hot milk, pour the mixture into a buttered pie-dish, and bake in a
moderately hot oven until set. Serve with green vegetables and
potatoes.
SAVOURY CUSTARD (Another way).
1 quart of milk, 6 eggs, pepper and salt to taste, 1 tablespoonful
each of finely chopped parsley and spring onion. Proceed as above; mix
the herbs and onion with the custard, and bake until set.
SAVOURY FRITTERS (1).
1 teacupful of mashed potatoes, 1/2 lb. of breadcrumbs, 1 large
English onion, 2 eggs, 1 oz. of butter, 1 teaspoonful of powdered
sage, 1/2 saltspoonful of nutmeg, pepper and salt to taste. Chop the
onion up fine and fry it brown in the butter. Whip up the eggs and mix
both ingredients with the breadcrumbs; add the mashed potatoes, herbs,
and seasoning, and mix all well together. Form into fritters, dredge
with flour, and fry them a nice brown. Serve with vegetables,
potatoes, and sauce.
SAVOURY FRITTERS (2).
12 oz. of onions, 6 oz. of breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoonful of dried sage, 2
eggs, 1-1/2 oz. of butter, pepper and salt to taste. Chop the onions
up small and fry them in the butter, or oil a nice brown, then add the
sage to them. Mix a third of the onions with the breadcrumbs, add the
eggs well beaten, pepper and salt; mix all well, form into fritters,
and fry in butter or oil. The remainder of the onions place round the
fritters on the dish. Serve with apple sauce.
SAVOURY PICKLED WALNUT.
1/2 lb. of Allinson bread, 1 pint of milk, 3 eggs, 4 pickled walnuts
and the vinegar to taste, 1 tablespoonful of finely chopped parsley, 1
teaspoonful of powdered mixed herbs, 1 grated English onion, 2 oz. of
butter, pepper and salt to taste. Soak the bread in the milk, add the
parsley, herbs, onion, eggs and seasoning. Mash up the pickled
walnuts, dissolve part of the butter on the stove and add both to the
