Indian Pudding.


Made as our grandmothers prepared it,
without eggs. The Old way that has
never been improved upon is to bring a
quart of fresh milk to a boil In an iron
kettle. then sprinkle into it, little by lit
tie. with the left hand, about one and
one-quarter cupfuls of fine granulated
meal. stirring constantly meanwhile with
the right hand. The meal should be held
high and allowed to sift slowly through
the fingers. When this has thickened and
cooled two tAspoonfuls of ginger, three
quarters of a cupful Of molasses and one
half teaspoonful of salt should be stirred
in and the mixture beaten until smooth.
The pudding dish must then be thorough
ly creased, the batter poured in and a
quart of cold milk turned in at the last.
After this last addition but little stirring
is needed Bake about five hours in q
slow oven. The slower the oven the more
creamy. and delicious the pudding After
the. cold milk is added the batter should
be as thin for pancakes. AS meals
vary in their thickenlng properties, an
exact rule cannot be given, but it is al
ways safe to assume that the newer the
meal the less will be required
