Amber Pudding.

6 eggs beaten light; 1 cup of sugar, creamed with ½ cup of butter; juice of a lemon, and half the grated peel; a good pinch of nutmeg; puff paste.

Mix sugar, butter, eggs, together; put into a custard-kettle, set in hot water, and stir until it thickens. Stir in lemon and nutmeg, and let it get cold. Put a strip of paste around the edge of a pie-plate; print it prettily; pour in the cold mixture, and bake in a steady, not too hot oven. Eat cold.

First Week. Saturday.
