PASTRY AND PUDDINGS

Plum Pudding.

If you wish to learn to cook, buy Flint Hills’ Cook Book, And read it every day and night, Then study every dish, from mutton down to fish And learn to make it tempting to the sight; Be careful with your dough, and roll it very slow, O, have it just the proper size. Have an eye upon your spice; oh, cook it brown and nice, And then you’ll carry off the winning prize.

You get a little flour, a lemon very tart, A handful of raisins with a clove, You put it in a bag, or any other rag. A nice bright fire in the stove; A little milk and egg, molasses just a dreg, A drop or two of rum that’s nice; You’d better watch the clock, don’t have it like a rock, This pudding that is mixed with spice. Abbie Mac Flinn.

Apple Dumplings.

Put a generous cup of sugar in a baking dish half full of hot water and while this is boiling make the pastry. Sift a scant pint of flour with a pinch of salt and even teaspoonful of baking powder, rub into this butter or lard the size of an egg, and mix with milk or water. Roll thin and cut in seven pieces; fill these with sliced apple. After moulding them place in the hot syrup, sprinkle with nutmeg and bake about half an hour. There is no need of serving sauce if there is plenty of syrup in dish—though cream is an improvement.
