Rice Bavarin

Put into a double boiler one and one-half pints of milk and a few thin cuts of lemon peel. When it boils stir in one-half cup of well-washed rice and a saltspoon of salt. Cook until the rice is perfectly tender. The milk should be nearly boiled away, leaving the rice very moist. Then add or mix in carefully a half-cup of sugar and a quarter of a box of gelatine which has soaked in half a cup of cold water for an hour and then been melted by placing the cup containing it in hot water for a few minutes. When the mixture is partly cooled add three tablespoons of sherry or any preferred flavor. When it is beginning to set, stir in lightly, half a pint of cream which has been whipped stiff, and put into a mold. Serve with crushed strawberries sweetened. The white mold with red sauce makes a charming combination.
