RECIPES FOR PIES
SQUASH FOR PIES
Cut a squash in pieces, remove the seeds, pare the same as for pumpkin, put in a kettle on the stove and stew until tender. When done, rub through a fruit sieve. For each pie, add 1 egg, 1/2 teaspoonful of ginger, 1/2 teaspoonful of cinnamon, a little nutmeg, and sugar to taste; add milk to make as thin as for pumpkin. A little molasses adds very much to the flavor. Beat the eggs before mixing with the squash.
