Ingredients
- a pint of corn through one water
- one water
- two table- spoons butter
- one egg
- one table-spoon milk
- salt
- pepper
Directions
For a family of eight, wash a pint of corn through one water, and put to soak overnight in clean cold water (if impossible to soak so long, place over a kettle of hot water for two or three hours); when softened, cook five to ten minutes in water in which it was soaked, adding as soon as boiling, two table- spoons butter, one of flour, and a little salt and pepper. An- other good way to finish is the following: Take the yolk of one egg, one table-spoon milk, pinch of salt, thicken with flour quite stiff so as to take out with a teaspoon, and drop in little dumplings not larger than an acorn; cover tightly and cook five or ten minutes; have enough water in kettle before adding dumplings, as cover should not be removed until dumplings are done.
