Arrowroot Souffle

Mix four table-spoonfuls of arrowroot with a cupful of milk. Stir it gradually into a pint of boiling milk, and add two table-spoonfuls of sugar on which the rind of a lemon has been rubbed. Let it boil for a quarter of an hour, stirring all the time. Take it from the fire and let it cool, then stir in the well-beaten yolks of six eggs. Well oil a plain tin mould, and when everything is ready, whisk the whites to a solid froth, and add them to the rest. Fill the tin three-parts full, and bake for twenty minutes in a good oven. Serve immediately. Sufficient for five or six persons. Probable cost, 1s. 3d.
