Ingredients
- half cup of rice
- a pinch of salt
- one egg to ornament the island
- salt
Directions
Boil slowly a half cup of rice with a pinch of salt, and stir as little as possible, so the grains will be large and full when done. Let the water boil away, in order to mold the rice nicely. When well done pour into a bowl, and set in a r cool place fifteen minutes to mold ; then prepare a custard, a pint will be sufficient, leaving the white of one egg to ornament the island. Separate the rice from the sides of the bowl with a knife, and turn into a large glass bowl, or scal- loped oyster dish. Pour the custard around the island, then drop the white of egg, when beaten to a stiff foam, in spoon- fuls over the whole, after which sprinkle lightly with nutmeg. Flavor the custard with lemon.
