Mix one ounce of arrowroot with a tea-cupful of cold water, and let it stand some minutes, until the arrowroot is settled. Pour off the water, and substitute a little orange-flower or laurel water. Boil with a pint of new milk, a stick of cinnamon, the thinly-cut rind of a lemon, or any seasoning that may be preferred. Pour it when boiling upon the arrowroot, stirring all the time. Put it into a mould, set it in a cool place, and it will be ready for use the following day. Time to boil, a few minutes. Sufficient for a pint mould. Probable cost, 6d.
