FRIDAY'S RECIPES: VINTAGE RECIPES
Today's recipes are from The Rumford Complete
Cookbook by Lily Haxworth Wallace, published
by the Rumford Company in 1931. My copy was
also signed because it was a gift to the owner in
1931. These recipes are perfect for treats with
tea or coffee.
Baked Orange Pudding
1/3 cup sugar
3 level tablespoons bread crumbs
grated rind and strained juice of 1 orange
1 cup milk
1 egg
Beat the egg thoroughly and add the orange and
sugar; scald the milk and pour it over the crumbs;
add the first mixture and, when well mixed, pour
into a cold baking dish. Bake till set like a custard,
and serve cold.
Oatmeal Sticks
3 cups flour
1/2 level tsp. salt
1 level tbsp. sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 1/4 cups scalded milk
1/2 cup oatmeal or rolled oats
4 level tsp. Rumford Baking Powder
Sift together the flour, salt, sugar and baking
powder; cut in the shortening, scald the milk
and pour it over the oatmeal; cool, mix with
the other ingredients and work with the hands
till smooth; then roll into sticks about the length
and thickness of a lead pencil. Bake about ten
minutes in a rather hot oven. (400 degrees F.)
Fairy Cones
6 egg yolks
3 level tbsp. sugar
2 level tbsp. flour
1 cup chopped English walnut meats
whipped cream, sweetened and flavored
Beat the yolks of the eggs with the sugar; add the
flour, then the nuts and spread as thinly as possible
on greased, flat baking tins. Bake about 7 minutes
and while still warm cut into squares and roll each
in the form of a cone. When wanted for use fill with
the sweetened and flavored whipped cream.
Cinnamon Crisps
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
1 level tsp. ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
2 level tsp. Rumford Baking Powder
1/4 cup milk
Beat the butter and sugar, and when light and
creamy add the cinnamon, flour and baking
powder sifted together. Use just enough milk
to make a dough that can easily be rolled out.
Roll very thin on a well-floured board and cut
into squares or rounds. Bake on greased pans,
in a moderate oven, about ten minutes.
Oatmeal Macaroons
2 level tbsp. butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 level tsp. Rumford Baking Powder
1 tsp. almond extract
1/4 level tsp. salt
Soften the butter slightly, add the sugar, then the
beaten eggs and extract, next the oats, baking
powder and salt mixed together. Drop by spoonfuls
on greased pans, and bake about twelve minutes
in a hot oven.

They just make the best of everything."
