Oatmeal Pudding. No. 2.
Pour 1 qt. of boiling milk over 1 pt. of the best fine oatmeal; let it soak all night. Next day beat 2 eggs, and mix them into the oatmeal with a pinch of salt.
Butter a basin that will just hold the mixture; cover the basin tight with a floured cloth, and boil 1½ hours. To eat hot, with cold butter and salt, or when cold, slice it, toast it, and butter well, when sent hot to table.
