one-quarter pound of suet (chopped very fine), two eggs, one and
one-half cups of sugar, a wineglass of brandy, two cups of cider, one
teaspoon of cinnamon and ground cloves. When all these are well mixed
add enough flour (with a teaspoon of baking-powder in it) to thicken
well. Cook in a greased mold and allow to steam for three hours.
HONEY PUDDING
Mix one-half cup of honey with six ounces of bread crumbs and add
one-half cup of milk, one-half teaspoon of ginger, grated rind of half a
lemon and yolks of two eggs. Beat the mixture thoroughly and then add
two tablespoons of butter and the whites of the eggs well beaten. Steam
for about two hours in a pudding mold which is not more than
three-quarters full.
*PUDDING SAUCES*
BRANDY SAUCE
Take one cup of water, a quarter glass of brandy, one cup of sugar,
juice of half a lemon. Boil all in double boiler. Beat the yolks of two
eggs light, and add the boiling sauce gradually to them, stirring
constantly until thick.
CARAMEL SAUCE
Put one cup cut loaf sugar in a saucepan on the stove without adding a
drop of water. Let it melt slowly and get a nice brown without burning.
Beat the yolks of three eggs until light, stir in two cups of sweet
milk, and when the sugar is melted, stir all into the saucepan and
continue stirring until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is somewhat
thickened; then remove from the fire, add one teaspoon of vanilla
essence, put in a bowl and put the stiffly-beaten whites of eggs on top.
Serve with puddings, cakes or fritters.
CHOCOLATE SAUCE, No. 1
Dissolve one-half pound chocolate in one cup of water and sugar to
taste, boil somewhat thick and flavor with vanilla.
CHOCOLATE SAUCE, No. 2
Scald two cups of milk, add two tablespoons of cornstarch diluted with
one-half cup of cold milk, and cook ten minutes over boiling water. Melt
three squares of chocolate over hot water, add three tablespoons of
sugar and three tablespoons of hot water; stir until smooth, then add to
cooked mixture. Beat the whites of three eggs until stiff, add
three-fourths of a cup of powdered sugar; add the yolks and stir into
cooked mixture; cool and add vanilla.
FOAM SAUCE
Cream one-quarter cup of butter with one cup of powdered sugar, until
very light. Add separately the unbeaten whites of two eggs, stirring
briskly and beat again. Add one teaspoon of vanilla and one-half cup of
hot water. Pour in sauceboat, and place boat in a pan of boiling water
on stove, until it becomes frothy then serve immediately.
FRUIT SAUCES
Wash the fruit well, then put on the stove in a saucepan without adding
any more water. Cover with a lid, and let the fruit get thoroughly
heated all through until it comes to a boil, but do not boil it. Stir
occasionally.
When well heated, mash the fruit well with a wooden potato masher, then
strain through a fine sieve, being careful to get every drop of
substance from the fruit.
