OLD TIME DISHES.
Some Famous Recipes From New England
Kitchens and Their Cooks.


To prepare Rhode Island baked beans
put one quart of beans to soak in cold
water over night. In the morning
pour off the water and cover with fresh
cold water; put on the fire and let them
come to the boil slowly, then simmer
until quite soft, but not broken. Then
pour Off the water and put them into q
baking dish with boiling water enough
to moisten. Add pinch of dry mus
tard, some salt and two tablespoons of
molasses. Take about half pound of
fat salt pork, boiled and scored, and
put in the middle of the dish. Set in
the oven, covered, and let them cook
slowly all day. About two hours be-
fore night uncover and brown.
For sponge cake or diet bread take
twelve eggs and the weight of the
eggs in sugar and half the weight in
-four; one lemon, juice and rind. Beat
the yolks and whites very light; beat
the sugar into the yolks. Next add the
juice and grated peel of lemon, then
the -four; lastly the beaten whites
put in these very lightly. Have tins
with perpendicular sides, lined with
buttered paper, and steady fire. The
cake should be eaten the day It is
made.
For "brown pudding" use three cups
Of -four, one cup of milk, one cup of
molasses, one cup suet, chopped fine,
two cups of raisins, one teaspoonful of
powdered mace and cinnamon, and two
Of powdered cloves and salt, one tea
spoonful of soda dissolved in little Of
the milk. After mixing pour into q
tightly covered and well-buttered tin
mold. Tie this in strong towel and
boil hard Tor three hours and half.
Citron and currants may be added. A
hot liquid sauce, favored with lemon
or brandy, is nice to eat with this. The
man is yet undiscovered who does not
like this pudding.
For raised biscuit set a sponge to rise
ss for bread at 8 o'clock. At half-past
rub into one quart of flour one table
spoonful of lard, a little white sugar
and one teaspoonful of salt Make hole
In the middle and put in your sponge.
