powder, salt, cinnamon, soda, cloves, and nutmeg. Add suet, nuts, and
raisins or chopped candied fruit. Combine 1 slightly beaten egg, milk, and
molasses. Add to the flour mixture all at once; stir until all dry
particles are moistened. Turn into well-greased 2-quart mold or
casserole.** Cover tightly with cover or aluminum foil. Place on rack in
large steamer or kettle; add boiling water to one-third height of mold.
Cover tightly. Steam 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until pudding springs back when

decrease soda to 1/4 teaspoon. **Or use two well-greased 1 pound coffee
cans; steam each in a separate kettle.
