CREAM OF CORN.

To one can of corn add three pints of milk; boil for half an hour. To one tablespoonful of chopped onion, add two tablespoonfuls of butter and cook in frying pan until delicate brown, then add to onion and butter two tablespoonfuls of flour; blend. Stir this mixture into the corn and milk; add salt and pepper to taste; cook five minutes; then run through coarse sieve to strain, and stir in the well beaten yolks of two eggs and one quarter of a cupful of cream; return to double boiler and cook until it thickens; do not let it boil.
