Corn-starch Hasty Pudding.
1 quart fresh milk; 3 tablespoonfuls corn-starch, wet up in cold milk; 1 tablespoonful of butter; 1 teaspoonful of salt.
Scald and salt the milk, and stir into it the corn-starch. Boil steadily, stirring now and then, for fifteen minutes. Add the butter; let the pudding stand in hot water, uncovered, after you have ceased to stir, until you are ready for it; then serve in an open, deep dish. Eat with cream and sugar.
