oyal minced very small, and some salt, boil it in
beef-suet, marrow, (or none.) These puddings are excellent for
stuffings of roast or boil'd Poultrey, Kid, Lamb, or Turkey, Veal,
or Breasts of Mutton.
_To make a Pudding in haste._
Take a pint of good Milk or Cream, put thereto a handful of raisins
of the Sun, with as many currans, and a piece of butter, then grate
a manchet and a nutmeg, and put thereto a handful of flour; when the
milk boils, put in the bread, let it boil a quarter of an hour, then
dish it up on beaten butter.
_To make a Quaking Pudding._
Slice the crumbs of a penny manchet, and infuse it three or four
hours in a pint of scalding hot cream, covering it close, then break
the bread with a spoon very small, and put to it eight eggs, and put
only four whites, beat them together very well, and season it with
sugar, rose-water, and grated nutmeg: if you think it too stiff, put
in some cold cream and beat them well together; then wet the bag or
napkin and flour it, put in the pudding, tie it hard, and boil it
half an hour, then dish it and put to it butter, rose-water, and
sugar, and serve it up to the table.
_Otherways baked._
Scald the bread with a pint of cream as abovesaid, then put to it a
pound of almonds blanched and beaten small with rose-water in a
stone mortar, or walnuts, and season it with sugar, nutmeg, salt,
the yolks of six eggs, a quarter of a pound of dates slic't and cut
small a handful of currans boil'd and some marrow minced, beat them
all together and bake it.
_To make a Quaking Pudding either boil'd or baked._
Take a pint of good thick cream, boil it with some large mace, whole
cinamon, and slic't nutmeg, then take six eggs, and but three
whites, beat them well, and grate some stale manchet, the quantity
of a half penny loaf, put it to the eggs with a spoonful of flour,
then season the cream according to your own taste with sugar and
salt; beat all well together, then wet a cloth or butter it, and put
in the pudding when the water boils; an hour will bake it or
boil it.
_Otherways._
Take a penny white loaf, pare off the crust, and slice the crumb,
steep it in a quart of good thick cream warmed, some beaten nutmeg,
six eggs, whereof but two whites, and some salt. Sometimes you may
use boil'd currans, or boil'd raisins.
If to bake, make it a little stiffer, sometimes add saffron; on
flesh-days use beef-suet, or marrow; (or neither) for a boil
