Indian Pudding
A recipe as published in the Miltonian in 1911
Perfect for Thanksgiving, Indian Pudding is a centuries old cornmeal molasses pudding first made by American colonists who were most likely re-creating the hasty pudding they left behind in England. Hasty pudding is made with oats, but since oats were not yet available in America, cornmeal was substituted. Cornmeal (called Indian meal by colonists) was one of many food gifts from the Native Americans, and molasses was widely available for the early rum industry.
