Bubble Pudding.
1 quart of fresh milk; 5 eggs, well beaten; 3 tablespoonfuls of corn-starch; 1 tablespoonful of sugar; nutmeg to taste; pinch of soda in the milk.
Scald the milk; stir in the corn-starch; cook one minute, and pour upon the beaten eggs and sugar. Season, whip up well; pour into a round-bottomed mould, well buttered; fit on the top; set in a pot of boiling water; boil three-quarters of an hour; turn out upon a dish, and eat with wine sauce. It will almost certainly break in two on the way to table, hence the name.
Second Week. Sunday.
