A raisin seeder will seed without waste a pound of raisins in a few minutes ; wash but do not scald them for the seeder. To a pound of raisins add four cups of cold water and let them soak over night ; then place them on the range in the water they Have soaked in, adding more if neces- sary, and allow them to heat very slowly. Keep closely covered and cook until tender, but do not allow them to boil if the skins will become tender without. After soaking over night, they may be steamed until tender.
