BAKED CORN MEAL PUDDING, WITHOUT EGGS.
Take a large cupful of yellow meal and a teacupful of cooking molasses
and beat them well together; then add to them a quart of boiling milk,
some salt and a large tablespoonful of powdered ginger, add a cupful
of finely-chopped suet or a piece of butter the size of an egg.
Butter a brown earthen pan and turn the pudding in, let it stand
until it thickens; then as you put it into the oven, turn over it a
pint of cold milk, but do not stir it, as this makes the jelly. Bake
three hours. Serve warm with hard sauce.
This recipe has been handed down from mother to daughter for many
years back in a New England family.
