Beat two eggs, stir them into the mucilage with as much sugar as will sweeten it, pour the mixture in a pan and bake it slowly.
It may be eaten with sweet sauce.
Arrow-root and sago can be made in the same manner, only the sago requires more soaking and boiling than the tapioca.

PUDDING FOR THE CONVALESCENT.
454. One pint of milk,
Two table spoonsful of flour,
Three eggs,
Sugar to the taste.
Beat the eggs, add the sugar, then the milk and flour by turns. Put the mixture in a bowl or pan, place it in another pan of hot water, set it where it will cook, and when a custard is formed set it off to cool.
There should not be too much sugar for invalids as it is apt to produce dyspepsia.
