Ingredients

  • one quart milk
  • eight eggs
  • one teacup sugar

Directions

1

One quart milk, eight eggs, one teacup sugar. Season with vanilla. Custard should be put into a custard boiler, or a tin pail. This should be placed in a kettle of boiling water, stir- ring the mixture constantly till it is a little thickened. If it is well stirred the custard will be a smooth cream, but if allowed to remain too long in the boiling water after it has begun to thicken it will curdle, and be spoiled. If any other flavor than vanilla is used, it should not be put in until the custard is cooked. It is best to boil the milk before adding the other ingredients, then it will not curdle.
