Bread and Butter Pudding. No. 1. Carlisle.
Chop 2 ozs. of mixed candied peel and line the bottom of a
1 pt. basin with half of it. Make a warm custard with 3 yolks
of eggs and 2 white, ½ pint of milk, 1 oz. of sugar and the rind
of a lemon.
Half fill the basin with slices of bread and butter, distributing
the rest of the chopped candied peel between the slices. If you
have no peel use marmalade, or 1 oz. of currants. Pour in
the custard and steam 1 hour.
(Baked, this takes less than ½ hour.)
