General Grant Pudding

Eight tablespoons tapioca, put to soak over night in water enough to cover it. In the morning boil two quarts milk, take the yolks of six eggs, and two cups of sugar, a little salt, beat with the tapioca, and stir them into the milk. Take the latter off the fire and stir gradually that it may not curdle; boil about ten minutes, flavor to taste. Pour it into your pudding dish, and when cool make frosting with the whites of the eggs, and spread it on, and brown in a quick oven. Two whites of eggs are better, put in the pudding; use the other four for frosting. If you have not a farina kettle, set it in a tin pail in a kettle of boiling water.
