RECIPE

 

  
 
Welch Pudding.
  Melt half a pound of butter by setting it in a basin
floating in hot water, and gradually mix with it the beaten
yolks of eight eggs and whites of four. Sweeten with
finely-pounded sugar, and season with the grate of a lemon
and a little nutmeg. Bake in a dish with an ornamented
paste border; and when ready, stick slices of citron or
candied orange-peel round the edges.
