Ingredients
- 1 tablespoonful
- a tablespoonful of cold water
- 1 egg 1 glass of sherry 1 tablespoonful
- 1 glass of sherry 1 tablespoonful
- one way until they thicken
- nutmeg
Directions
1 egg 1 glass of sherry
1 tablespoonful and £ glass of Sugar and grated nutmeg to cold water taste
Beat the egg, mixing with it a tablespoonful of cold water; make the wine and water hot, but not boiling; pour it on the egg, stirring all the time. Add sufficient lump sugar to sweeten the mixture, and a little grated nutmeg; put all into a very clean saucepan, set it on a gentle fire, and stir the contents one way until they thicken, but do not allow them to boil. Serve in a glass with sippets of toasted bread or plain crisp biscuits. When the egg is not warmed the mixture will be found easier of diges- tion, but it is not so pleasant a drink.
