Lemon Pudding, No. 1

242. Half a pound of sugar,
Half a pound of butter,
Five eggs,
The grated rind and juice of one lemon,
Half a gill of brandy.

Beat the butter and sugar. Whisk the eggs and add to it the grated yellow rind and juice of one lemon, and lastly the liquor. Make a puff-paste, line your pie plates with it, and pour in the mixture. These ingredients will make three puddings.

It requires a moderate oven.

This is a very rich and expensive kind of pudding—for a plainer kind see No. 2.

In place of the liquor, a table spoonful of rose water, and a tea spoonful of grated nutmeg may be added.
