Directions

1

Make a custard of two coffee-cups of milk, yelks of four eggs, four table-spoons of white sugar, and set aside to cool. Take the juice of two oranges and the rind of one, strain over two table-spoons of gelatine and one tea-cup of sugar. Pour gently over this one pint boiling water ; stir until dis- solved, and set aside to cool. Beat the four whites stiff, and stir into this one spoonful at a time. Put the grated rind into the custard, put into a glass bowl, and heap the float upon it. It requires a good deal of beating. — Mrs. Allen Bashford.
