s Kyea Ulive Aldous barrett â€" git from th‘ old butcher. ‘When "yew done that yew gotts cut up a coupla little owd anions und bung the bits in. (!!) Then put a dollop o‘ water in and slosh it about till it‘s like a currant pudden (only dew yew make care it ain‘t got currants in it). Put in a good bit 0‘ salt and then put the whole lot in a pudden cloth and tie it up afore yew put it into a saucepan that‘s got water aâ€"gallopin‘ in it. "AMMMnhouit’llhmdyuut,MHWl a grit old pudden yew want to cook it for longer. Don‘t yew w»itboinliu'fillhutnlonva’u.oh’h-tit,uflm dew it‘ll go just loike concrete. "Yew eat it wi gravy and a drop o‘ mustard afore the roast mest, the preparin‘ o° which I ain‘t aâ€"goin‘ to tell yew a word about." . t% Angus W., Cornelius gets the credit for the above and if you:ak me it sounds a mite like the way a man would set down a recipe. Perhaps some of my readers might recognise the dialect and know what he means by "bung the bits in"! T like the way he has the water "aâ€"gallopin‘" . . . and how much is a "dollop" o‘ water I wonder? That bit reminds me of an incident in my youth that had to do with pudding cloths and gentlemen cooks. Mother and Father had gone off for the weekâ€"end and left.Uncle Jim in charge (he lived with us). Instead of sticking to a simple menu poor old Uncle Jim decided to whomp up a good oldâ€" fashioned plum pudding â€" the kind you boil in a cloth bag in a huge pot for hours and hours. T . . Now we kids were sure fond of plum pudding, especially when topped with creamy custard sauce. We were wishing at that point that Mother and Father went away ‘more often, because plum pudding was usually just saved for special occaâ€" sions. Dashing off the first course (I forget what it was) we couldn‘t wait for the yuammy dessert. Mother would lift the pudding out of the boiling water, untie the string and just roll the round, firm, juicy raisinâ€"filled pudding onto a plate and we‘d all dig in. But poor Uncle Jim‘s pudding didn‘t bear any resemblance to Mother‘s in any sense of the word. It was pale, watery and had no character at all. In fact when he tried to roll it out of the cloth onto the big platter it just went blah! What happened? The cloth was full of holes! Water had seeped in and we almost had to drink the pudding! Undaunted, Uncle Jim set out porridge dishes and we were served the blearyâ€"looking mess. Still hoping it would taste better than it looked, we set to with our big spoons. After just one spoonful the look on our faces must have prompted the question, "‘What‘s the matter?" He‘s forgotten to put sugar in it! Still determined to salvage his "piece de resistance" he passed the sugar and we ate our pudding! T persuaded Uncle Jim to let me make some muffins. He "was game and we got out Mother‘s recipe book. Muffins, muffins . . . Oh, yes, here we are ... * Not knowing how it tasted, although it‘s appearance rather bothered me (it hadn‘t risen more than an eighth of an inch) I decided to ies it and send it to the party,. There wasn‘t‘ time to make ianother, asnyway. S6, like good old Unele Jim, I salvaged the cake by smothering it with lovely vwmllh‘. ©I found out why a seasoned eook like Mother wouldn‘t bother with this eake. A more weird assortment of ingreâ€" dients you‘d never find! It had mollasses in it, the tea of course, and I seem to remember putting in baking soda and watching the molliasses and the tea churning up together and fizzing like soda pop. Can‘t remember what else went into it. It was fascinating, anyway. just so‘s we wouldn‘t hurt Uncle‘s feelings, I can almost taste it! It was almost like eating watery raisin soup! (Ugh!) Aunt Mary had given Mother a recipe which Mother hadn‘t had the eourage to try and which bore the innocent title "Chocolate Tea Cake". Many people nowsdays will argue that coffee cake has no coffee in it and tem cakes too, have no tea in them. Not so this cake. It was a tem cake because it had tea in it. It‘s appeal for me, 1 think, was the fact that you dumped all the ingredients into a huge bow! and just mixed. At the bottom of the list of items to go into it, it just said "Mix". Sounded so easy! That was the weekâ€"end that we were having a congreâ€" gational dinner at the church â€" I think it was the Saturday night. In those days, everyone brought something and it turned out to be a sort of "pot luck" affair. I can recall another time when my cooking was the "hit of the party. Still very young, with more enthusiasm than skill, I proposed to make a cake for my brother Dave to take to the CBA Boys skating party. We were wrong. Dead wrong. Those muffins were so »ard .. . well, do you know what we did with them?* Uncle im had a good sense of humor, and also hated to waste anyâ€" thing.‘\:: put some of my bulletâ€"like muffins in a bag and we took m to the church dinner. Not letting on, of course, that we‘d brought them. we man:ged to smuggle them into the church. I have no idea what Uncle Jim thought they‘d do with them when he got the crfty idea of taking them alone, but the minister was a> bit of a wag too, apparently, for somehow he discovered the bag of soâ€"called muffins. We, of course, could laugh the loudest when the Reverend, meated centre front at the head table used one of my muffins as a president would use his gavel â€" to call the meeting to order! e Pudding Cloths and Gentlemen Cooks . . . Order Please! . . . Like the old saying "the blind leading the blind", Uncle ave me all the advice he knew about making muffins â€" hich must have been NIL, judging by the results. For one hing, he knew nothing of the "light touch" with such delicate clicasies as muffins, and I was persuaded to "put lots of "bow grease" into the stirring! Well, I did. I stirred until ay arm was ready to drop off, almost. We both thought wat the more we mixed the better they‘d be.
