  1. Fill a deep tart-dish with alternate layers of well-sugared fruit, and very thin slices of the crumb of a light stale loaf.
  2. Let the upper layer be of fruit.
  3. Should the fruit be of a dry kind, sprinkle over it about a dessertspoonful of water, or a little lemon-juice.
  4. Raspberries, currants, and cherries will not require this.
  5. Send the pudding to a somewhat brisk oven to be baked for about half an hour.
  6. The proportion of sugar used must be regulated, of course, by the acidity of the fruit.

PUDDING À LA PAYSANNE. (Cheap and Good.) Fill a deep tart-dish with alternate layers of well-sugared fruit, and very thin slices of the crumb of a light stale loaf; let the upper layer be of fruit, and should it be of a dry kind, sprinkle over it about a dessertspoonful of water, or a little lemon-juice: raspberries, currants, and cherries, will not require this. Send the pudding to a somewhat brisk oven to be baked for about half an hour. The proportion of sugar used must be regulated, of course, by the acidity of the fruit. For a quart of ripe greengages, split and stoned, five ounces will be sufficient.
