Plain Rice Pudding.
Put two quarts of good milk in a tin pan, with a tea-cup of whole rice,
the same of stemmed raisins, and a little nutmeg or cinnamon, and sugar
to your taste. If you bake it in a dutch-oven, it is best to put a
little water in the bottom before you set it in; bake it till the rice
is soft, and there is a brown crust on the top.
A Rice Dish with Fruit.
Put a tea-cup of rice in a quart of milk, and boil it very slowly to
keep it from burning; when done, add a little salt, a tea-cup of cream,
and sugar enough to sweeten it; have ready, in a deep dish, any fruit
that is in season,--cherries, blackberries or apricots, apples, or
peaches, cut up and well sweetened, but uncooked; spread the rice
roughly over, and bake it slowly two hours. It may be eaten with cream,
and nutmeg, and is quite as good cold as warm. |

Custard Bread and Butter Pudding.
Fill a pan with slices of buttered bread, with raisins, grated nutmeg
and sugar over each slice; beat six eggs with a tea-cup of sugar; add
two quarts of rich milk, and pour it over the bread and butter; bake it
in a stove or oven.
Balloon Puddings.
Mix a pint of rich milk with a pound and a quarter of flour; break
nine eggs; beat the yelks with the batter, the whites alone; when they
are mixed, stir in three-quarters of a pound of melted butter; grease
cups or bowls with butter; pour in the batter, and bake them half an
hour; if in a dutch-oven, put some water in the bottom; eat them with
white sauce. |

Baked Apples.
Wash and core your apples, and in the vacancy left by the core, put
brown sugar, and bake them in a stove or oven.
Batter Pudding with Green Fruit.
Make a batter as for suet pudding. If you have small fruit, put it in
whole; if apples, chop them fine; boil it three hours. |

Suet Pudding.
Take half a pound of suet chopped fine, four tea-cups of flour, and five
eggs; beat these together with a quart of milk, and half a spoonful of
salt; put in three tea-cups of raisins just before you tie it up; they
should be rubbed in flour to prevent them from sinking; dried cherries,
or pared dried peaches, are very good instead of raisins; scald the
cloth and flour it; leave room for the pudding to swell. If you put
one-fourth corn meal, you can do with fewer eggs.
Cheese Cakes.
Take one quart of curd, after the whey has been strained off, mix with
it half a pound of fresh butter, an ounce of pounded blanched almonds,
the whites of three eggs, a tea-cup of currants; season with sugar and
rose water to your taste, and bake in plates with paste. |

To two pounds of mush moderately warm, put three-quarters of a pound of
butter, the yelks of six eggs, the rind of one lemon, and juice of two;

Richmond Pudding.
Take one pound of raisins, stoned and chopped, half a pound of currants
rubbed in flour, a pound and a half of grated bread, a pound of suet
shred fine, eight eggs, two glasses of brandy, and two of wine; beat
them all together, adding the eggs at the last; dip your bag or cloth in
boiling water and flour it well; pour in the pudding and tie it up,
leaving room for it to swell; allow it four hours to boil; eat it with
white sauce. |

butter, the same of rolled sugar, the juice of two lemons and the
peel of one; beat five eggs, and mix all together with a glass of
wine and a nutmeg.
A Preserve Pudding.
Take a deep dish, butter it well and spread a layer of preserves,
without syrup--either quinces, citron, apples or peaches; rub together a
pound of fresh butter, and the same of powdered loaf-sugar, and add the
yelks of sixteen eggs well beaten; pour this on the preserves, bake it
in a quick oven for half an hour; it may be set by till the next day;
beat the whites of the eggs as for island, seasoning with currant jelly,
and spread it over the pudding cold, just as it goes to table. This
makes a rich dish and is eaten without sauce. This quantity will bake in
four ordinary pie plates. |
