Mixed Pickles,
Home-made or bought, should be passed with the cutlets.
Jam Pudding.
3 cups of milk.
4 eggs.
¾ of a cup of sugar.
Bread and butter.
Sweet jam—berry, peach, or quince.
Spread slices of stale bread with butter, then with jam. Fit them closely into a buttered pudding-dish until it is two-thirds full. Make a custard by adding the beaten eggs and sugar to the scalding milk, but do not let them boil. Lay a heavy saucer upon the bread and butter to prevent floating, and moisten gradually with the hot custard. Let all soak for fifteen minutes before the dish goes into the oven. When it is hot throughout, take off the saucer, that the pudding may brown equally. Eat cold.
