1178 | Rice à la Turque.

—Wash well a quarter of a pound of rice, and blanch for ten minutes in boiling water. Put it into a saucepan, with a pint of milk, and let cook firmly; adding three tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, and a lump of sugar onto which has been rubbed the peel of half a small lemon; also half an ounce of good butter, one ounce of cleaned currants (No. 1080), and a saltspoonful of salt. After twenty minutes, remove from the fire and thoroughly stir in the yolks of four eggs. Place this in a croustade, as for 1176, and put it in a slow oven for fifteen minutes. Remove, sprinkle with a little sugar, pass a hot shovel or salamander over the top; glaze it well, and serve at once.
