Sultana Pudding. No. 2. (By Mrs. Challen, Anaconda House, Marine Parade, Worthing. 1882.)
Like a very light bread pudding. A small basin (not pie
dish) well buttered, and then lined all over with quite a mosaic
work of sultanas. Fill the basin with small pieces of light French
roll cut into dice, but put no butter. Strew a little picked, very
fresh beef suet (about ½ oz. of suet will do between each layer
of bread, also a little chopped candied peel; then pour over all a
custard of 2 eggs and milk, sweetened to taste, and flavoured
with a little grated lemon peel or spice.
Steam and turn out.
For Sauce. This Wine Sauce*: Take 6 largeish lumps of sugar,
melted in a little warm water and cleared, to which add a glass
of white wine. Serve the sauce hot and clear.
