October 24th : SUET DUMPLINGS
Put a tea-spoonful of salt into eight ounces of fine flour, and mix well with half a dozen ounces of finely chopped suet; beat up, in a teacupful of milk, a couple of eggs, and stir these with the other ingredients. This will make eight small dumplings; they can be either tied up separately in cloths covered with flour, or put in “naked,” and boiled for an hour, with beef or mutton.
