To make a Barm Pudding.
TAKE a pound of flour, mix a spoonful of
barm in it, with a little salt, and make it into
a light paste with warm water, let it lie one
hour, then make it up into round balls, and tie
them up in little nets, and put them in a pan of
boiling water; do not cover them, it will make
them sad, nor do not let them boil so fast as to
let the water boil over them, turn them when
they have been in six or seven minutes, and they
will rise through the net and look like diamonds,
twenty minutes will boil them; serve them up,
and pour sweet sauce over them.
