PUDDlNGS CAN BE BOILED IN
PAPER BAGS.

1t is not beyond paper bags to boil
things, especially buildings. They
must be put In thin molds with tight
fitting tops, the molds filled only two
thirds-even a little less for some
sorts. After the tops are on tight
the molds must be set in a lightly
creased bag, which has been gently
f1attened at the bottom SO as not to
break it, and reinforced along the
seam with thick paste. which has
been allowed to dry before using.
After the pudding is in the bag, the
mold standing upright, pour in
enough cold water to come three
parts up the sides, fold and clip the
bag, set it on & trivet with feet an
inch high, and put the~trivet upon the
bottom of the oven. Have the oven
hot, keep it so for ten minutes, then
slack heat half and cook as long as
necessary.
Here follow sundry receipts for
buildings adapted to this paper bag
boiling, along with a caution-pastry
