_Ingredients._—3 oz. of tapioca, 1 quart of milk, 2 oz. of butter, ¼
lb. of sugar, 4 eggs, flavouring of vanilla, grated lemon-rind, or
bitter almonds. _Mode._—Wash the tapioca, and let it stew gently in
the milk by the side of the fire for ¼ hour, occasionally stirring it;
then let it cool a little; mix with it the butter, sugar, and eggs,
which should be wall beaten, and flavour with either of the above
ingredients, putting in about 12 drops of the essence of almonds or
vanilla, whichever is preferred. Butter a pie-dish, and line the edges
with puff-paste; put in the pudding, and bake in a moderate oven for
an hour. If the pudding is boiled, add a little more tapioca, and
boil it in a buttered basin 1½ hour. _Time._—1 hour to bake, 1½ hour
to boil. _Average cost_, 1_s._ 2_d._ _Sufficient_ for 5 or 6 persons.
_Seasonable_ at any time.
