RECIPE

Yam Pudding.
Take a middling white yam, and either boil or roast
it ; then pare off the skin, and pound it very fine with
three-quarters of a pound of butter, half a pound of sugar,
a little mace, cinnamon, and twelve eggs, leaving out half
the whites ; beat them with a little rose-water. You may
put in a little citron cut small if you like it, and bake it
nicely.
