Ingredients
- three teaspoonfuls sugar
- nine egg-shells that have been emptied by breaking a hole on the side
- two lemons
Directions
Fill nine egg-shells that have been emptied by breaking a hole on the side, with firm blanc mange. Take the rind from two lemons and cut it into fine straws with shears ; boil the straws in a little water until tender, then put in three teaspoonfuls sugar, and boil ten minutes longer. Fill a round glass dish with thick custard or whipped cream, place the straws around the edge, break the shells from the eggs, and place them carefully in the center, smooth side up.
