I think the pudding ingredients must taste fantastic!

I've learned so much just by reading and turning those brittle and yellowed pages. It's particularly interesting to me to see how things have changed in recipes. I'm preparing a few related blog articles about oatmeal cookies in the Victorian era, and who was really first, when the fascination appeared, and WHY it took American Victorians so long to try oatmeal cookies. Isn't history amazing?<br />Thanks for contributing!<br />Warm regards,<br />KristinKristin Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12998253281628770747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908284284859079079.post-27045244465417208672019-04-23T07:21:49.480-07:002019-04-23T07:21:49.480-07:00I am fascinated by old recipes!

There are ingredients, cooking ammonia, in them that seem a bit strange��. The one that belonged to my great aunt was a school text book��Glendaleonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01716352955100619878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908284284859079079.post-62596355319496194662019-04-22T09:42:26.282-07:002019-04-22T09:42:26.282-07:00Hi Doris--

Maybe eggs were scarce or great grandmother found eggs too precious to put in a pudding/custard if the dish could be thickened without. I imagine eggs make for a richer pudding... but then, so does whole milk. =)<br /><br />Rice muffins, especially if historic, sound fascinating! Who knew rice could be such an important food basic back then? I'll keep my eyes peeled in my vintage newspaper searches. Maybe I can find something like your cherished recipe for rice muffins.<br /><br />Warm regards,<br />Kristin Holt<br /><br />Kristin Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12998253281628770747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908284284859079079.post-28640819012195369932019-04-21T22:59:28.476-07:002019-04-21T22:59:28.476-07:00My family, starting with my great grandmother, nev...My family, starting with my great grandmother, never put eggs in her pudding. I was surprised to see eggs added.<br /><br />On another note, I'd found a recipe for rice muffins, but when my old computer died, I lost it. I've been on a hunt for it ever since.
