Recipe - Lumpy Dick

Boiling water
White flour
A pinch of salt
Milk and sugar

Ida S. Davidson & Florence C. Shields

A "dick" is simply a boiled pudding, and this dish is kin to the infamous
"spotted dick." There is no doubt that, even with vigorous stirring of the
flour during it addition and cooking, this dish indeed would be lumpy.
While the dish is associated with Mormons in San Bernardino, it is a
traditional English dish of the poor.
To boiling water slowly add white flour until it reaches the consistency of
mush; add a pinch of salt. Serve either hot or cold with milk and sugar.
