Savory Bread Pudding.
Soak two cups of bread-crumbs in a cupful of yesterday’s gravy, diluted with a little of your soup-stock. Add a cup of boiling milk, in which a pinch of soda has been stirred; beat to a smooth batter; add half a cupful of minced cold meat, three eggs, pepper, and salt. Pour into a buttered bake-dish, after beating all up light, and bake in a quick oven. Serve in the dish, and pass a little good gravy, or drawn butter, with it.
