Poor Man’s Pudding

A historic recipe, as printed in The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book by Fannie Merritt Farmer (1910). Quantities and methods are as written then.

Ovens had no dials: a slow oven is about 300–325°F, moderate 350–375°F, hot 400–450°F. A yeast cake is about 2¼ teaspoons of dry yeast, a square of chocolate is 1 ounce, and bread flour or pastry flour can be replaced with all-purpose flour.

Ingredients

4 cups milk
½ cup rice
⅓ cup molasses
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter

Steps

Wash rice, mix and bake same as Rice Pudding. At last stirring, add butter.
