Ingredients

  • six ounces of fresh beef-kidney suet
  • six ounces of currants
  • two ounces more of suet can be added when a larger proportion is liked
  • a pound of finely grated bread-crumbs
  • a pound of castor sugar
  • four full-sized
  • 4 large
  • 5 small

Directions

1

To half a pound of finely grated bread-crumbs, add six ounces of fresh beef-kidney suet, free from skin, and minced very small, a quarter of a pound of castor sugar, six ounces of currants, the grated rind and the strained juice of a _large_ lemon, and four full-sized or five small well-beaten eggs; pour these ingredients into a thickly-buttered pan, and bake the pudding for an hour in a brisk oven, but draw it towards the mouth when it is of a fine brown colour. Turn it from the dish before it is served, and strew sifted sugar over it or not, at pleasure: two ounces more of suet can be added when a larger proportion is liked. The pudding is very good without the currants.

Bread-crumbs, 8 oz.; beef-suet, 6 oz.; pounded sugar, 3-1/2 oz.; lemon, 1 _large_; currants, 6 oz.; eggs, 4 large, or 5 small: 1 hour, brisk oven.
