RICE FLUMMERY.

To two quarts of milk allow half a pound of ground rice. Take out

one pint of the milk, and mix the rice gradually with it into a

batter; making it quite smooth and free from lumps. Put the three

pints of milk into a skillet, (with a bunch of peach leaves or a

few peach-kernels.) and let it come to a boil. Then while it is

still boiling, stir in by degrees the rice batter, taking care not

to have it lumpy; add sugar, mace, and rose brandy to your taste;

or you may flavour it with a small tea-spoonful of oil of lemon.

When it has boiled sufficiently, and is quite thick, strain it,

and put it into a mould to congeal. Make a rich boiled custard,

(flavoured in the same manner,) and send it to table in a pitcher

to eat with the flummery. Both should be cold. If you mould it in

tea-cups, turn it out on a deep dish, and pour the custard round

it.
