BREAD JELLY.--Toast some stale bread, take off the crusts, put the soft
part in a bowl, and sprinkle sugar and a little salt over and between;
cover with boiling water and stand in a can of boiling water; steam
gently until the contents of the bowl are like jelly. Eat warm, with
powdered sugar and nutmeg.
