Plain Boiled Pudding.
3 cups—full ones—of good flour.
2 cups of “loppered” milk or buttermilk; sour cream is best of all.
1 full teaspoonful of soda dissolved in hot water.
A little salt.
½ cup finely-powdered suet.
Stir the milk and soda gradually into the flour, working it smooth. Put suet and salt in, and beat all thoroughly. Boil in a buttered mould an hour and a half.
