Dissolve the cornflour in a little cold water and stir into the boiling
apple. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring all the time. Pour into a wet mould.
Turn out and serve when cold.
13. CUSTARD, BOILED.
1 pint milk, 2 eggs, 1 tablespoon castor sugar, flavouring.
Put some thin strips of the yellow part of a lemon rind, or a vanilla pod,
in the cold milk. Allow to stand 1 hour or more. Then take out the peel,
add the sugar, and put over the fire in a double saucepan, if possible.
Bring to the boil. Beat the eggs. Take the milk off the fire, let it stop
boiling, and pour it slowly into the eggs, beating all the time. Put back
into the saucepan over a slow fire and stir until the mixture thickens
(about 20 minutes).
14. CUSTARD, HOGAN.
1 qt. milk, 8 eggs, 12 lumps sugar, 1 large tablespoon cornflour.
Flavour milk as in Boiled Custard. Put nearly all the milk and all the
sugar into a 3-pint jug and stand in a saucepan of boiling water. While
this is heating beat the eggs in one basin, and mix the cornflour with the
remainder of the milk in another. Add the eggs to hot milk, stirring all
the time, and finally add the cornflour. Stir until the mixture thickens
(about 20 minutes).
