Name: Apple Tapioca Pudding
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 teacupful of tapioca and one teaspoonful of salt into one pint and a half of water; 6 tart apples; 1 little nutmeg and lemon peel; 1 teaspoonful of melted butter and a cupful of cold milk; 1 cupful of sugar; 1 hour; 1 with the juice of the canned peaches in place of the cold milk

Original Recipe

Put one teacupful of tapioca and one teaspoonful of salt into one pint and a half of water, and let it stand several hours where it will be quite warm, but not cook; peel six tart apples, take out the cores, fill them with sugar, in which is grated a little nutmeg and lemon peel, and put them in a pudding-dish; over these pour the tapioca, first mixing with it one teaspoonful of melted butter and a cupful of cold milk, and half a cupful of sugar; bake one hour; eat with sauce. When fresh fruits are in season, this pudding is exceedingly nice, with damsons, plums, red currants, gooseberries or apples; when made with these, the pudding must be thickly sprinkled over with sifted sugar. Canned or fresh peaches may be used in place of apples in the same manner, moistening the tapioca with the juice of the canned peaches in place of the cold milk. Very nice when quite cool to serve with sugar and cream.
