Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
1 lb. of stoned and stewed prunes, 3/4 lb. of thin slices of Allinson
bread and butter, 3 eggs, 1 pint of milk, sugar to taste. Grease a
pie-dish and line it with a layer of bread and butter, then arrange a
layer of prunes, and so alternately until the dish is full, finishing
with bread and butter; pour a little prune juice over, beat up the egg
in the milk, adding a little sugar if liked. Pour the custard over the
mixture, let soak 1 hour, and bake 1 hour. The pudding will be much
improved if all the liquid is poured off once or twice, and poured
over again.
RICE PUDDING (French).
8 oz. of rice, 1 quart of milk, 2 tablespoonfuls of sugar, 4 eggs, 1
teacupful of fine breadcrumbs, the rind of 1/2 a lemon; boil the rice
in the milk with the sugar and lemon rind; let it gently simmer until
quite soft, and until all the milk is absorbed; let the rice cool a
little, beat up the yolks of the eggs, and mix them with the rice.
Thoroughly butter a pudding mould, and sprinkle it all over with the
breadcrumbs. Beat the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth, mix this
well with the rice, and turn the whole gently into the mould, taking
care not to displace the breadcrumbs; bake the pudding 1 hour in a
moderate oven. It should turn out brown and firm, looking like a cake.
Serve with fruit sauce or stewed fruit.
ROLLED WHEAT PUDDING.
4 oz. of Allinson rolled wheat, 1 quart of milk, 1 teacupful of
currants and sultanas, a very little sugar. Soak the rolled wheat in
water for 1 hour. Set the milk over the fire, when boiling add the
wheat from which the water has been strained. Let it cook gently for 1
hour, then add the fruit, turn the mixture into a buttered pie-dish,
and bake the pudding from 1/2 to 1 hour in a moderate oven.
RUSK PUDDING.
6 oz. of Allinson rusks, raspberry jam, 1 pint of milk, 4 eggs, a few
drops of almond flavouring. Spread a little jam between every two
rusks, and press them together. Arrange them neatly in a buttered
mould; beat up the eggs, mix them with the milk, which has been
flavoured with almond essence, and pour the custard over the rusks;
let them soak for 1 hour, then steam the pudding for 1/2 an hour, turn
out, and serve with white sauce.
SEMOLINA BLANCMANGE.
1-1/2 oz. of semolina, 1 pint of milk, 1 oz. of loaf sugar, yolk of 1
egg, a few drops of essence of lemon. Soak semolina in 1/4 pint of the
milk for 10 minutes, then stir it into the remainder of the milk,
which must be boiling; add sugar, and stir over a clear fire for 20
minutes. Take off and mix in quickly the yolk of an egg beaten up with
flavouring. Pour into mould previously dipped in water. Serve cold
with stewed fruit or custard.
