QUINCE PUDDING
Peel, core, and quarter five quinces and simmer until softened in water to cover. Rub through a sieve, add a cupful of sugar and the yolks of four eggs beaten with a pint of milk. Line a deep baking-dish with pastry, turn in the quince, and bake for forty-five minutes. Cover with a meringue made from the beaten whites of four eggs and six tablespoonfuls of sugar. Return to the oven until puffed and brown and serve cold.
RASPBERRY PUDDING
Fill a buttered baking-dish with alternate layers of raspberries and dry bread crumbs, sweetening each layer of berries with sugar. The top layer should be crumbs. Dot with butter, sprinkle with sugar and bake for half an hour. Serve with cream.
RED SAGO PUDDING
Wash a cupful of sago and soak over night in four cupfuls of cold water. Cook in a double boiler in the water in which it was soaked until the sago is transparent. Add a pinch of salt, two cupfuls of raspberry, cherry, strawberry, or currant-juice, and sugar to taste. Cook for half an hour, turn into a wet mould, chill, and serve with whipped cream. This pudding may be made with jelly instead of fruit juice. Grape juice made tart with lemon-juice may also be used.
RICE PUDDING—I
Wash half a cupful of rice thoroughly, soak in cold water for two hours, and drain. Add two tablespoonfuls of sugar, a teaspoonful of salt, a little grated nutmeg, four cupfuls of milk, and half a cupful of raisins. Bake for two hours, stirring occasionally, then add a cupful of milk and bake for an hour longer. Serve in the baking-dish.
