Directions
1364. INGREDIENTS.--1/2 pint of sherry, 1/4 pint of water, the yolks of 6 eggs, 2 oz. of pounded sugar, 1/2 teaspoonful of minced lemon-peel, a few pieces of candied citron cut thin.
_Mode_.--Separate the yolks from the whites of 5 eggs; beat them, and put them into a very clean saucepan (if at hand, a lined one is best); add all the other ingredients, place them over a sharp fire, and keep stirring until the sauce begins to thicken; then take it off and serve. If it is allowed to boil, it will be spoiled, as it will immediately curdle.
_Time_.--To be stirred over the fire 3 or 4 minutes; but it must not boil.
_Average cost_, 2s.
_Sufficient_ for a large pudding; allow half this quantity for a moderate-sized one.
_Seasonable_ at any time.
