1 tablespoon hot water.
1 egg.
1/4 teaspoon salt.
1/2 teaspoon sage.
1/2 teaspoon summer savory.
1/2 teaspoon thyme.
1/2 tablespoon grated onion Roast the pine nuts slightly in the oven; roll but not too finely; dissolve the savora in the hot water, soak the bread crumbs in a little cold water, the amount varying with the dryness of the bread. Turn off the water and squeeze the bread crumbs quite dry. Add the beaten egg and the dissolved savora, also the other seasonings; then stir in the pine nuts.

Prepare the bread crumbs by rubbing pieces of stale bread together, thus making fine, loose crumbs. Dry these out in a small oven and toast only slightly. Mix peanut butter with the milk, adding only a small portion at a time, and mixing thoroughly before adding more. "When all of the milk has been added, beat the eggs and add to the peanut butter. Stir in the crumbs, the finely chopped or grated onion, the hot mashed potatoes and the seasonings. Turn into a well oiled bread tin and bake one hour. To remove from the bread tin, turn upside down on a platter with a moist cloth over the tin. Let this remain five minutes or more, then loosen with a knife and turn out upon the platter. Garnish with parsley and moulds of cranberry jelly.
