Hannah More's Pudding

Shred a quarter of a pound of beef suet very finely, mix with it half a pound of finely-grated bread-crumbs, a quarter of a pound of stoned raisins, a quarter of a pound of moist sugar, and a quarter of a pound of chopped apples, weighed after they are pared and cored. Add a pinch of salt, a quarter of a nutmeg, grated, two ounces of candied-lemon, chopped small. When these ingredients are thoroughly mixed, stir into them four well-beaten eggs and two table-spoonfuls of brandy. Pour into a well-buttered mould, plunge it into boiling water, and boil for three hours. Probable cost, 10d., exclusive of the brandy. Sufficient for four or five persons.
