GROUND RICE SHAPE. 261 following manner: — Take a thick paring from the turnip, cut the turnip in small dice, and throw them into a large basin of cold water ; scrape well the carrots, and slice one of them thinly ; wash and slice thinly the leeks ; wash and chop finely the cabbage ; slice also the onion ; and place all these vegetables in the basin of cold water. Wash them well, and place them in the sauce-pan with the liquor when the head has been removed. Soak now the barley for two minutes in boiling water, pour away the water, and add the barley to the liquor ; add also the pepper. Draw the pan on one side, and let all boil slowly two hours, when the soup is ready.* SIMPLE MILK PUDDINGS. Rice Pudding.— One quart milk, one half pound rice, one egg, one ounce raisins, two table-spoonfuls sugar. Wash well the rice and place it in a sauce-pan, pour over it the milk, and place the sauce-pan by the side of the fire. Allow the contents to simmer for twenty minutes very slowly. Beat well in a basin the egg and sugar together, and when the rice has cooked twenty minutes add it, and stir all well together. Grease a basin or mould with drip- ping ; take the seeds from the raisins, and stick them over the basin. Pour gently in the mixture from the basin, and cover the basin with a piece of paper. Place the basin in a sauce-pan, and pour round it as much boiling water as will come half-way up the sides. Place the pan over the fire, and allow the water to boil for one hour. Turn then the pudding out on a very hot dish. Ground Rice Shape.— One pint milk, three ounces ground rice, three ounces sugar
