GREEN PEAS (a la Creme)

Boil a pint of newly-shelled, fresh young peas in the usual way. Drain them in a colander until quite dry. Mix an ounce of butter and a tea-spoonful of flour smoothly together, over the fire; add a quarter of a pint of good, sweet cream; when it boils, put in the peas for two or three minutes, and serve as hot as possible. Time, half an hour, altogether. Probable cost, 1s. 3d. Sufficient for three or four persons.
