   Boiled Pudding

   To one quart of Indian meal add three pints of hot milk, half a pint of molasses or treacle; a dessert spoon of salt, an “?” or more of beef suet shred fine. Stir the materials well together, tie in a cloth, allowing for room for pudding to swell one-eight larger, and boil it six or eight hours. The longer it boils the better. It may be made without suet.

   Baked Pudding

   In two “?” of milk add one “?” of meal, a little salt, and a cup of sugar. Prepare by heating the milk over the fire, stirring it occasionally to prevent its burning, when it scarcely boils remove it, put in the salt and sugar, and scatter in the meal, stirring rapidly to prevent it collecitng into lumps, put in the nutmeg, and, turn into a deep pan bake for three hours. When it has baked one hour, pour over the pudding one gill or one “?” of milk ; this will soften the crust and form a delicious whey.

   Batter for bake

   Stir one of boiling water into the same quantity of meal, a little salt and 2 eggs beaten, bake over fire.
