 | | Puff crust: Half a pound of flour, a quarter of a pound of butter (or half butter and half lard), a pinch of salt, and as much baking powder,as will cover a ten-cent piece, a few drops of lemon juice, and about a wine-glassful of water. |
 | | For the crust, half a pound of suet, chopped very fine; three-quarters of a pound of flour, a heaped teaspoonful of baking powder, a saltspoonful of salt, one egg beaten to a froth, and a wine-glassful of water. |
 | | Plain suet pudding, made exactly as the suet crust de-scribed (but not rolled out), boiled in a basin, or even in a cloth, is excellent with sugar, j am, or with hot meat, such as leg of mutton or ribs of beef. |
