Jewish cooking
Boil two pounds lean, fresh beef. When cold, chop fine. Add one-half
pound chopped suet, shredded very fine, and all gristle removed. Mix in
a bowl two pounds of seeded raisins, two pounds of currants, one-half
pound of citron, chopped very fine. Two tablespoons of cinnamon, two
tablespoons of mace, one grated nutmeg, one tablespoon of cloves,
allspice, and salt. Mix this with meat and suet. Then take two cups of
white wine, two and one-half pounds of brown sugar. Let stand. Chop fine
four apples, and add meat to fruits. Then mix wine with whole, stir
well, and put up in small stone jars. This will keep all winter in a
cool place. Let stand at least two days before using. Line pie-plates
with a rich crust, fill with mince meat mixture, put a rich paste crust
on top, or strips if preferred, prick slightly and bake. Serve warm, not
hot.
PUMPKIN PIE
Press through a sieve one pint of stewed pumpkin, add four eggs and a
scant cup of sugar. Beat yolks and sugar together until very thick and
add one pint of milk to the beaten eggs. Then add the pressed pumpkin,
one-half teaspoon of cinnamon, less than one-half teaspoon of mace and
grated nutmeg. Stir the stiffly-beaten whites in last. Bake in a very
rich crust without cover.
GRAPE PIE
Squeeze out the pulps and put them in one vessel, the skins into
another. Then simmer the pulp a little and press it through a colander
to separate the seeds. Then put the skins and pulps together and they
are ready for the pies.
HUCKLEBERRY PIE
Line a pie-plate with rich pastry. Pick, clean and wash one pint of
huckleberries, drain and lay them thickly on the crust. Sprinkle thickly
with sugar, lightly with cinnamon, and drop bits of butter over the top.
Bake a nice even brown.
PEACH CREAM TARTS
One cup of butter, and a little salt; cut through just enough flour to
thoroughly mix, a cup of ice-water, one whole egg and the yolks of two
eggs mixed with a tablespoon of brown sugar. Add to the flour in which
you have previously sifted two teaspoons of baking-powder. Handle the
dough as little as possible in mixing. Bake in round rings in a hot oven
until a light brown. When baked, sift pulverized sugar over the top and
fill the hollow centre with a compote of peaches. Heap whipped cream or
ice-cream on top of each one, the latter being preferable.
MOCK CHERRY PIE
Cover the bottom of pie-plate with rich crust; reserve enough for upper
crust. For filling use two cups of cranberries, cut in halves; one cup
of raisins, cut in pieces; two cups of sugar, butter the size of walnut.
Dredge with flour, sprinkle with water. Bake thirty minutes in a
moderate oven.
PEACH CREAM PIE
Line a pie-plate with a rich crust and bake, then fill with a layer of
sweetened grated peaches which have had a few pounded peach kernels
added to them. Whip one cup of rich cream, sweeten and flavor and spread
over the peaches. Set in ice-chest until wanted.
