Meatless Cookery

Published as America rationed meat for the war, this is a whole cuisine built without it — nut roasts and cheese soufflés, dasheen and okra soups, vegetable gelatine, and a chapter on what to do with the whites of eggs.

Normandy Pudding

6 ounces bread crumbs 6 ounces sugar 6 small sour cooking apples 1 saltspoon ground cloves 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 lemon Peel, slice and core the apples, or chop them up not too finely; put them with all the other dry ingredients in a basin, and stir well. When thoroughly mixed, add the lemon juice and the finely grated rind of a half of it; also, a little brandy or rum if liked. Pour the mixture into a well greased mold, and tie over a greased cloth or paper, and steam for about three hours. Serve with white wine sauce. The use of rum or brandy is optional. The pudding is much more tasty if one or the other is added. Serve both the sauce and the pudding very hot as the latter is not so delicious when cold.
