Boiled Onions in White Sauce

Peel the onions and cut off the roots, dropping into cold water as fast as they are peeled. Drain from the cold water and put in a stewpan with boiling water to cover generously. Add 1 teaspoon of salt for each quart of water. Boil rapidly for 10 minutes, with the cover partly off the saucepan. Drain off water and cover onions with hot sweet milk (a quart of onions will require a pint of milk). Simmer for half an hour. Beat together 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 level tablespoon of flour. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of white pepper. 1 quart okra 1 cup rice
