*DIRECTIONS*
Break the macaroni or spaghetti into 1/2-inch lengths, put them with a
pinch of salt into the milk when boiling, and simmer until tender. Add the

mixture by the side of the fire for a few minutes, but do not let it boil.
Lastly, add the stiffly-whisked whites of eggs, then turn the mixture into
a greased pie-dish, and bake slowly from 25 to 30 minutes.
Time: About 1-1/2 hours. Sufficient for 3 to 4 persons.
