LAPLANDS.

Half a pint of flour, half a pint of rich milk, a
quarter of a teaspoonful of salt, three eggs beaten
separately and very light. Mix the flour, salt and
milk together, then the yolks of eggs, and lastly the
whites of eggs beaten to a stiff froth. Have a gem
pan very hot, butter well and fill with the batter and
bake in a quick oven twelve to fifteen minutes. This
quantity will make fourteen gems.

ENGLISH MUFFINS.

Half a pint of hot milk, half a pint of hot water,
half a yeast cake, an even teaspoonful of salt and
one of sugar, and about a pound and a half of white
flour. Dissolve the yeast cake in a little tepid water
and add to the batter when lukewarm. The milk
and water mixed must be stirred into the flour while
hot. Beat the batter very hard, ten or fifteen min-
utes; it should be a soft dough. Set to rise over
night. Flour the board well, drop the dough in large
spoonfuls in the flour, flatten with the hands and
form into shape. Let them rise on the board in a
warm place, and when light bake on a griddle,
heated only half as hot as for griddle cakes. Flour
the muffins and bake slowly on one side six minutes,
then turn and bake the same on the other side. They
are very nice split and toasted and buttered immedi-
ately and put together again.

salt and one teaspoonful of sugar, then add a cup of
tepid water in which a cake of compressed yeast has
been dissolved, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter;
when mixed break in one egg and add flour enough
to make a soft dough. Knead well, beating the
dough upon the board. Set to rise in a warm place,
when light knead again, adding only enough flour to
keep from sticking to the board, roll out about half
an inch thick, cut with a biscuit-cutter, brush with
melted butter, fold in half and set to rise again.
These rolls can be set at noon if for tea, or in the
morning if for luncheon, or they can be made up at
night for breakfast, when use only half a yeast cake.
This dough can be moulded into small, oblong rolls
for afternoon teas.

FOR ITALIAN PASTRY AND TIPSY CAKE.

Ingredients : One pint milk, six ounces loaf sugar, five eggs,
a small piece of cinnamon. Boil the milk, sugar, and cinna-
mon together, whisk the eggs well up, pour the boiling milk over
them, well whisking all the time, stir them well together over a
slow fire until boiling; takeoff and stand the stewpan in cold
water and stir until cold.

ITALIAN PASTRY.

Take some short paste, roll out very thin, spread some custard
over it, cover it with a layer of short paste, then mask the top
over with meringue, made as follows: Four whites of eggs
beaten to a stiff froth, stir in five ounces powdered white sugar,
bake it in a cooljoven ; when baked, cut it up in fancy shapes, and
ornament the tops with preserved fruits.

MERINGUES.

Ingredients : Eight whiles of eggs, one pound powdered white
sugar. Break the whites of eggs very carefully into a clean
pan ; then with a wire whisk beat them to a stiff snowy froth, so
that the whisk will stand upright in them; then gently stir
in the sugar, and with a dessertspoon lay out in little heaps like
half eggs on stiff white paper, sprinkle a little powdered sugar
over them, and bak^ ia a very cool oven ; when baked a nice
light brown, take out and lift up the meringue, and with a tea-
spoon scoop out the soft part in the centre and place back in the
oven to dry for a few minutes. Keep in a dry place until wanted.
Before sending to table fill in the hollows with whipped cream,
and place two together so as to form an egg in shape.

SANDWICH PASTRY.

Cut out of a sheet of puff-paste strips about three inches long,
an inch wide, and about half an inch thick ; lay them on their
edge and bake in a hot oven ; when nearly cooked, sprinkle
some fine sugar over them ; when cooked spread some jam on one
piece and cover it with another, the same as a sandwich.

SHORT PASTE.

Ingredients : one pound flour, one-half pound butter, the yolk
of one egg, and a little water. How to use them : Rub the butter
well in the flour, make a hole in the centre, break in the yolk
of one egg, and mix into a smooth, compact paste with cold water,
then it is ready for use.

SWISS PASTRY.

Take a piece of short paste, roll it out the thickness of a
penny-piece, spread some marmalade thinly over it, then cover
it with a layer of paste the same thickness ; wash the top over
with egg, and sprinkle over it some chopped almonds and
coarse white sugar ; mark with a knife nice-size pieces, and bake
it in a brisk oven.

MINCE PIES.

Mincemeat, how to make. Ingredients : One pound currants,
one pound sultanas, one-half pound beef suet, one-half pound
moist sugar, two pounds apples, one pound mixed peel, one-
quarter ounce mixed spice, the grating and juice of one lemon
and one orange. How to use them : Well wash and pick the
currants and sultanas ; chop up the suet very fine, using the
sugar to separate it ; pare the peel off, and take out the cores of
the apples, and chop them moderately fine ; chop up the mixed
peel very fine, sprinkle the spice over the ingredients, and well
mix together ; grate the rind of the orange and lemon over it,
and add the juice of the lemon and orange ; place in stone jars,
and it will keep good for months in a cool place. Line the
bottom of some small patty-pans with a thin cover of short
paste ; plaice a little heap of mincemeat in the centre, then
sprinkle a little water over them with a brush, and cover the
tops with puff-paste about a quarter of an inch thick, and bake
in a good oven. When baked, sprinkle a little powdered white
sugar over them, and be sure to take them out of the pans while
they are warm, because if let get cold, they will stick to the
bottom, and tear the short paste and let out the mincemeat.
Warm the mince pies previously to dishing up, as they should
not be quite cold when eaten.
