is forming on top, and, if it is, stir the pudding all up from
the bottom and push down the crust. Keep on doing this till
the rice swells and makes the milk all thick and creamy, which it
will after about an hour. Then let the pudding cook, and when
it is a nice deep brown take it out and let it get very cold.


Bread Pudding

2 cups of milk.
1 cup soft bread-crumbs.
1 tablespoonful of sugar.
2 egg yolks.
1 egg white.
1/2 teaspoonful vanilla.
1 saltspoonful of salt.

Crumb the bread evenly and soak in the milk till soft. Beat
it till smooth, and put in the beaten yolks of the eggs, the
sugar, vanilla, and salt, and last the beaten white of the
egg. Put it in a buttered pudding-dish, and stand this in a
pan of hot water in the oven for fifteen minutes. Take it out
and spread its top with jam, and cover with the beaten white
of the other egg, with one tablespoonful of granulated sugar
put in it, and brown in the oven. You can eat this as it is,
or with cream, and you may serve it either hot or cold.

Sometimes you can put a cup of washed raisins into the bread-crumbs
and milk, and mix in the other things; sometimes you can put in
a cup of chopped almonds, or a little preserved ginger. Orange
