Ingredients
- 2 cupfuls of milk
- 1 cupful of bread-crumbs
- 1 tablespoonful of sugar
- 1/2 teaspoonful of vanilla
- 1 saltspoonful of salt
- a piece of jelly on the top of the meringue
- 2 egg-yolks
- 1 egg-white
- one egg
Directions
2 cupfuls of milk. 1 cupful of bread-crumbs or broken bread. 1 tablespoonful of sugar. 2 egg-yolks. 1 egg-white. 1/2 teaspoonful of vanilla. 1 saltspoonful of salt.
Soak the bread in the milk until softened; then beat it until smooth and add the rest of the ingredients excepting the white of egg. Turn it into a pudding-dish, place this in a pan of hot water, and bake in a slow oven fifteen to twenty minutes, or only long enough to set the custard without its separating. Cover the top with a layer of jam or with tart jelly, and place in the center a ball of meringue made with the white of one egg; dust with sugar, place in the oven a moment to brown the meringue, and then put a piece of jelly on the top of the meringue. Serve hot or cold. The jelly and meringue answers as a sauce.
