Cut a pound loaf of bakers' bread into thin slices--spread butter on
them as for eating--lay them in a pudding dish--sprinkle between each
layer of bread seeded raisins, and citron, cut in small strips. Beat
eight eggs with four table-spoonsful of rolled sugar--mix them with
three pints of milk, half of a grated nutmeg. Turn the whole on to the
bread, and let it remain until the bread has absorbed full half of the
milk--then bake it about three-quarters of an hour.
