Milk Porridge

Take one tablespoonful of flour, mix it quite smooth with one breakfast cupful of water, taking care to see that there are no lumps left; put this into a good thick saucepan and add to it one breakfast cupful of milk, one teaspoonful of salt and a small quantity of grated nutmeg. Place it on the stove and keep stirring until it boils; allow it to boil for ten minutes or so, and it is then ready to serve.
