Rice Pudding Méringue.
1 quart of fresh milk; 1 cup of raw rice; 2 tablespoonfuls of butter; 1 cup of sugar; 4 eggs; grated peel of ½ lemon; a little mace and cinnamon.
Soak the rice in the milk three hours, then heat in a farina-kettle, and simmer tender. Cream butter and sugar, add the beaten yolks and one beaten white, and when the rice has cooled a little, beat all together with the seasoning. Bake about forty minutes in a buttered pudding-dish. When firmly set, cover with a méringue made of three whisked whites beaten up with a little sugar and lemon-juice.
Fourth Week. Saturday.
