INSTRUCTIONS
Serves 3 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 sugar, butter, lemon-rind, and the
well-beaten yolks of the eggs, stir 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. From: Mrs. Beeton's All About
