Arrow-Root Pudding for Invalids
453. See tapioca pudding, No. 452.
Pudding for the Convalescent
454. One pint of milk,
Two table spoonsful of flour,
Three eggs,
Sugar to the taste.
Beat the eggs, add the sugar, then the milk and flour by turns. Put the mixture in a bowl or pan, place it in another pan of hot water, set it where it will cook, and when a custard is formed set it off to cool.
There should not be too much sugar for invalids as it is apt to produce dyspepsia.
