Ginger Pudding. No. 1.
½ lb. of beef suet minced, ½ lb. of bread-crumbs, 2 ozs. of sugar, 3 tablespoonfuls of West India ginger, not minced too fine; mix all; lastly add beaten eggs.
Steam in a mould 4½ hours.
For Sauce: Custard sauce of 1 egg, milk, a little cream, and the syrup of the ginger to flavour at the last.
If the pudding is made with ground ginger, instead of West India ginger, you will want ½ lb. golden syrup with it; mix the ground ginger in golden syrup before adding the syrup to the bread-crumbs and suet; eggs last, always.
