Orange Dariole Filling. Richest

Requires deep pans for baking in as it flows over ordinary rims. 1 pound of sugar. 8 ounces of butter. 4 oranges. 10 eggs. Grate and squeeze the oranges into the sugar, add the butter and eggs and cook the mixture thick over the fire with constant stirring. Let it cool and then beat it light before filing the crusts.

And yet some worthy hopefuls having seen pie edges stand two inches high in distinct flakes while weighing next to nothing, will do their brave endeavors too, and lay a double edge on theirs, making a band of paste to place on the rim of the plate first, washed with egg, and the proper pie crust laid on top. That is all wrong. We told them they could not make our hotel pies. For if the airiest crust that can be laid on a pie edge will hardly be eaten is it not folly to double the weight and substance? Puff-paste perfectly made will rise high enough from one layer only from an eighth to a quarter inch thick. If it will not then it will not when doubled in thickness. And, besides, how much valuable time is wasted from better work, putting a useless double edge on the pies.
