Gooseberry Souffle

Take the required quantity of gooseberries, sweeten to taste, pass them through a sieve into a tart-dish, and let them get cold. Cover over to two inches in depth with rich custard, then with the whites of eggs beaten to a stiff froth, piling it in lumps, dust over with fine sugar, and bake in a very slack oven for a few minutes.
