BOILED RICE PUDDING.

1/2 cup rice. 1/2 tsp. salt. 1 pint milk. 1/2 cup raisins.

Wash the rice well.  Put it on the fire in 1 pint of cold water and let it cook for 10 minutes.  Drain off the water, add the salt and milk; then cook in the double boiler for 2 hours, add the raisins when about half cooked.  Do not stir the rice while it is cooking.

BROWN BETTY.

Pare, core and slice 6 or 7 tart apples.  Put a layer of stale bread crumbs in the bottom of the baking dish, then a layer of the apples, another layer of bread crumbs and apples, and so on until all are used, having the last layer crumbs.  Add 1/2 cup of water to 1/2 cup molasses, stir in 2 tbsps. of brown sugar; pour it over the crumbs and bake in a moderate oven for 1 hour.

APPLE SNOW.

6 apples.  Juice of 1 lemon. 1 cup white sugar.  Whites of 6 eggs.

Pare, core and steam the apples until tender, then press them through a sieve and put aside to cool; when cold add the sugar and lemon juice.  Beat the whites of the eggs to a very stiff froth, add the apples to them by spoonfuls, beating all the while.  Heap in a glass dish and serve immediately. (This is a very delicate and wholesome pudding for an invalid.)

Made the same as Brown Betty, omitting the molasses, adding water and a little lemon juice instead.

1 cup suet. 1 cup molasses. 3 cups flour. 1/2 tsp. salt. 1 cup raisins. 1 cup milk. 1 tsp. cinnamon. 2 tsps. baking powder.

Chop the suet very fine.  Stone the raisins.  Add the molasses to the suet, then the milk:  mix well and add the salt, flour and cinnamon.  Beat vigorously for 2 or 3 minutes, then add the raisins.  Rub in the flour, to which has been added the baking powder; mix thoroughly, turn into a buttered mould, steam for 3 hours.

TAPIOCA PUDDING.

1 cup tapioca. 4 eggs. 1/2 cup sugar. 1 quart milk. 1/4 tsp. salt. 1 tsp. vanilla.

Wash the tapioca carefully, then add it to the milk and soak 2 hours.  Beat the eggs and sugar together, add the salt, stir into the tapioca and milk, and bake in a moderate oven at least 3/4 of an hour.  Serve hot or cold.
