Sage-and-Onion Stuffing.

Method.—Blanch the onions by putting them into cold water, and bringing it to the boil; boil for five minutes, and then throw the water away.

Rinse the onions and put them into another saucepan of water, and boil for about one hour until they are quite tender; five minutes before taking them up put in the sage leaves.

Drain the onions and sage leaves, and chop them finely; then mix them with the bread-crumbs, pepper and salt.
