Pineapple Soufflé
From MRS. JAMES R. DEANE, of California, Lady Manager.
Three ounces pineapple, cut in discs; three ounces sifted flour; three ounces sugar; two ounces butter; one-half pint of milk; yolks of three eggs; whites of four eggs. Melt butter in a stew pan, add the flour and milk and cook well; add the sugar and pineapple; add the yolks of eggs, one by one, and stir well; then add the whites of eggs whipped to a stiff froth; stir these in lightly; pour into a well-greased soufflée tin; steam one hour over water that just simmers, not boiling. Serve with this sauce: Reduce one glass pineapple syrup about one-half; add one ounce cube sugar and one glass sherry; color with cochineal and pour around the pudding.
