Jam Roly-Poly Pudding

Shred five or six ounces of beef suet very finely; mix with it one pound of flour, add a pinch of salt, and half a tea-spoonful of baking-powder. Make it up into a firm paste with cold water; then roll it out to the thickness of a quarter of an inch, wet the edges all round, and spread half a pound of jam over the pastry. Roll it to the shape of a bolster, fasten the edges securely, and put the pudding into a floured cloth. Tie it at both ends, put it into boiling water without bending it, and let it boil quickly for about two hours. Send melted butter to table in a tureen. Imitation jam (see JAM, IMITATION) makes a good pudding for the nursery. Probable cost, 10d. Sufficient for four persons.
