Indian Meal Pudding.
4 beaten eggs; 1 quart of boiling milk; 2 scant cups white “corn-flour,” or very fine meal; ½ cup of wheat flour; 1 scant cup powdered sugar; 1 tablespoonful butter; a little salt; 1 tablespoonful of cream of tartar, and half as much soda sifted twice through the flour; ½ teaspoonful mixed cinnamon and nutmeg.
Boil the milk; stir in the meal, flour, and salt. Boil fifteen minutes, stirring up well from the bottom. Put into a bowl, and beat hard for three minutes. When cold add beaten eggs and sugar, with the spice. Whip long and thoroughly. Bake in greased cups or muffin-tins, in a steady oven. When done, turn out, and eat with butter and powdered sugar.
First Week. Saturday.
