About Boiled Puddings

BEFORE attempting a boiled pudding, be sure that you have a good mold with a tightly-fitting cover in which to cook it. You may use such a substitute as a bowl with a floured cloth tied over the top, but this may allow the water to enter and ruin your dough. The best substitute for a mold is a lard pail with a top, which may be made more secure by tying it on. Always grease your mold thoroughly-top, bottom, and sides and leave room for the swelling of the contents. Three hours will be, as a rule, the longest time required for the boiling of a pudding of ordinary size. All boiled puddings should be served as soon -Selected. as they are cooked.
