Boil a tea-cup of rice in a pint of water, with a blade of mace, and a
tea-spoonful of salt. When it swells out and becomes dry, add sufficient
milk to prevent its burning. Let it boil till quite soft, stirring it
constantly to keep it from burning--sweeten it with white sugar. Dip
your moulds in cold water, then turn in the rice, without drying the
moulds. Let the rice remain in the moulds till it becomes quite cold.
Turn it into dessert dishes, ornament it with marmalade cut in slices,
and box and serve it up with cream or preserved strawberries. It should
be made the day before it is to be eaten, in order to have it become
firm.
