Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Two cups flour, sifted, with one heaping teaspoonful baking powder, one cup of beef suet, free from strings and chopped fine, half teaspoonful of salt, rub all together thoroughly between the hands, then mix with fork into a rather soft dough, with about a cup of very cold water.
  2. Do not handle much, but roll out once very quickly until half an inch thick.
  3. Have ready prepared a two-quart bowl with a raised rim, line this with the dough, bottom and sides;
  4. heap with any fruit liked;
  5. add one-half cup of sugar, two or three tablespoonfuls of water, cover with dough and tie tightly over it a good-sized canton fiannel cloth, rough side out, wrung very dry out of cold water and floured.
  6. Put into a large pot of boiling water, with a mufiin ring or pot lid on the bottom, and keep boiling for two hours.
  7. As the water boils away it is of great importance to renew only with boiling water;
  8. the teakettle should be kept full for the purpose.
  9. Eat with cream and sugar or hard or soft sauce, as liked.
  10. This will be a new pudding in most households, but in reality is a very old one and a great favorite with those who once have tasted it.
  11. Guests always ask for the recipe.
  12. It is nice made with pieplant, but plums and peaches are delicious.
