Floating Island

Follow rule for Soft Custard; flavor with lemon juice, and garnish with a meringue made of the whites of four eggs, four tablespoons powdered sugar, and one teaspoon vanilla, beaten until stiff.

The meringue may be first poached in water in spoonfuls, then dropped on top of custard; or may be placed there without being poached, and teaspoons of currant jelly placed on top of each island.
