Re: [lace] Christmas Greetings
Yikes! That's definitely an old one. I found the following in an old cookbook which my Mother used in the '30s and '40s. It sounds pretty close to the original ingredients, and at least they have given us measures! 4 pounds lean beef 2 pounds beef suet Baldwin apples 3 quinces 3 pounds sugar 2 cups molasses 2 quarts cider 3 pounds currants 4 pounds raisins, seeded and cut in pieces 1/2 pound finely cut citron 1 quart grape juice or cooking brandy 1 tablespoon cinnamon and mace 1 tablespoon powdered clove 2 grated nutmegs 1 teaspoon pepper Salt to taste Cover meat and suet with boiling water and cook until tender. Cool in water in which they are cooked; the suet will rise to top, forming a cake of fat, which may be easily removed. Chop meat fine and add it to twice the amount of finely chopped apples. The apples should be quartered, cored, and pared previous to chopping, or skins may be left on, which is not an objection if apples are finely chopped. Add quinces finely chopped, sugar, molasses, cider, raisins, currants, and citron; also suet, and stock in which meat and suet were cooked reduced to 1 1/2 cups. Heat gradually, stir occasionally, and cook slowly 2 hours; then add grape juice or brandy and spices. A recipe following this one instructs us to assemble the pie with two crusts.
