Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
The juice of 7 oranges and of 1 lemon, 6 oz. of sugar, 4 eggs, and 4
oz. of Allinson cornflour. Add enough water to the fruit juices to
make 1 quart of liquid; put 1-1/2 pints of this over the fire with the
sugar. With the rest smooth the cornflour and mix with it the eggs
well beaten. When the liquid in the saucepan is near the boil, stir
into it the mixture of egg and cornflour. Keep stirring the mixture
over a gentle fire until it has cooked 5 minutes. Turn it into a
wetted mould and allow to get cold, then turn out and serve.
