Vegetarian cooking
The general rule for milk puddings is to take 4 oz. of farinaceous
food of any kind to 1 quart of milk. The best way to prepare most of
these puddings is to let the ingredients gently cook on the top of the
stove and then to turn them into a pie-dish to finish them in the oven
for 4 hour or a little longer, according to the heat of the oven.
Should eggs be added, they should be beaten well, then mixed with the
pudding before it goes into the oven. Most farinaceous milk puddings
are improved by the use of Allinson fine wheatmeal with the other
ingredients. For instance, use 2 oz. of giant sago and 2 oz. of
wheatmeal to 1 quart of milk; or for semolina pudding, the same
quantities of wheatmeal and semolina; and for vermicelli pudding the
same, with sugar and flavouring to taste.
MINCEMEAT PANCAKES.
4 oz. of Allinson fine wheatmeal, 1/2 pint of milk, 3 eggs, some
butter, and some mincemeat. Make the batter, fry the pancakes, and
place a spoonful of mincemeat on each pancake, fold them up, and serve
with sifted sugar.
NEWCASTLE PUDDING.
1/2 lb. of candied cherries, 3 eggs, Allinson wholemeal bread and
butter in thin slices, sugar to taste, 1 pint of milk, a few drops of
almond flavouring. Butter a pudding mould and line it with the
cherries, fill it with slices of bread and butter; sweeten the milk to
taste, and add the flavouring; beat up the eggs, mix them well with
the milk, pour the custard over the bread and butter, let it soak for
1 hour; steam the pudding for 1-1/2 hours, turn out, and serve with
any kind of sweet sauce.
NURSERY PUDDING.
1/2 lb. of Allinson fine wheatmeal, a pinch of salt, 4 oz. of
vege-butter, and 1/2 lb. of sultana raisins. Mix all lightly together,
then add 4 cupful of golden syrup, the well-beaten yolks of 2 eggs,
and teacupful of milk. Mix again, and finally add the whites of 3 eggs
whisked to a firm froth; use to fill a fancy mould, and steam for 3
hours; turn out carefully, and serve with sauce.
OATMEAL PANCAKES.
1/2 lb. of fine oatmeal, 4 eggs, 1 pint of milk. Make a batter of the
ingredients, and fry the pancakes in butter, oil, or vege-butter in
the usual way. These are very good, and eat very short. Serve with
lemon and castor sugar.
OATMEAL PUDDING.
6 oz. of Allinson breakfast oats, 3 eggs, 2 oz. of soaked sago, 1 gill
of milk, 2 oz. of sultanas, 2 oz. of currants, 1 even teaspoonful of
cinnamon, sugar to taste, 1 oz. of butter. Mix the Allinson breakfast
oats with the soaked sago, add the eggs, well beaten, the fruit,
sugar, butter, cinnamon, and milk; stir all well, butter a mould, pour
the mixture into it, cover with a cloth, and steam the pudding for 3
hours.
