Ingredients

  • one pint milk
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 table- spoons sugar

Directions

1

One pint milk; 4 eggs; 4 tablespoons sugar; % teaspoon spice or, y^ teaspoon salt ; l/2\ teaspoon flavoring. Scald the milk. Sep- arate the eggs. Mix salt, sugar and cornstarch. Add to yolks and beat slightly. Beat the whites until very stiff, add 2 table- spoons sugar to them, beat slightly and spread mixture on top of the hot milk. Let cook 2 or 3 minutes until firm, lift out on a plate and pour the hot milk on the beaten yolks. Put this mixture into a double boiler and stir until it thickens. When nearly cool, stir in flavoring, put the cooked whites on the top and serve cold as a pudding. A pretty way to serve it is to lay specks of jelly on the whites.
