Required: Four ounces of black currants. Two ounces of sugar. Four ounces of white breadcrumbs. One ounce of proteid food. Two ounces of fresh butter. One gill of fresh fruit-juice or water.

Butter a six-inch china pie-dish, then cover all over with breadcrumbs and proteid food. Next, put a layer of fruit, breadcrumbs, and pieces of butter, and pour over gradually the fruit-juice or water. Cover the whole with breadcrumbs and pieces of butter. Put the pie-dish into a paper bag (greased on the outside), and place on a grid or ordinary oven, and bake in a moderate oven (2000) for one hour.
