Fill the pie-dish with fruit as full as possible, as the fruit shrinks in cooking. To prevent the crust sinking put an old cup or pie- chimney in the centre of dish. Sprinkle with sugar; the quantity required depends on the fruit used. When using apples, plums, or any hard fruit, pour a little cold water over the fruit. Damp the rim of the pie-dish with water, and then line with a strip of pastry. Cover the fruit with crust, pinching it on to the edging, or pressing together with a fork. When making apple pie, put a few cloves with the fruit, or a little lemon juice, or lemon peel cut very thin. Before bringing pie to table, sprinkle over with fine white sugar. Notre.—Pies should be eaten while the crust is hot, as the pastry will be more digestible. GRANNY’S PUDDING 8-oz. Stale Breadcrumbs. 2-oz. Shredded ATORA. 3-Ib. Blackberries. 3-lb. Apples. 3-oz.
