Orange Filling

Two oranges (grated rind of one); two tablespoons of cold water; one dessert spoon of cornstarch; onehalf cup of sugar; one egg. Place the cornstarch in one-half the water, and when it is dissolved, add the beaten yolk of the egg, and stir until smooth. Place the rest of the water, the juice of the oranges and the grated rind of one of them, on the fire, and when the liquid boils, add the egg mixture. Cook two minutes, and add the slightly beaten white of the egg just before taking the filling from the fire. Cool partly before using.
