But if you feel that you must find a use for the whites of the eggs
dissolve a tablespoonful of powdered sugar in half a pint of hot
water, add to it half a pint of sherry wine and let this come to a
boil. Meanwhile have the whites of the eggs beaten to a froth and pour
the hot mixture over them, stirring rapidly. Pour into hot glasses,
grating a bit of nutmeg over the top of each. See to it that the
vessel in which you boil the wine is thoroughly clean. You don't want
even the faintest trace of a taste of anything besides the ingredients
herein prescribed.
