RICE CUSTARD.
Jewish Recipes
This is a very innocent and nutritive custard. Take two ounces of
whole rice and boil it in three pints of milk until it thickens, then
add half a pound of pounded sweet almonds, and sweeten to taste; a
stick of cinnamon and a piece of lemon peel should be boiled in it,
and then taken out.

is made the same way. Thirty or forty minutes is sufficient time for
cooking.

with enough cold water to make a paste, and be sure it is free from
lumps. Heat together the milk and water, and pour in the cocoa; then
cook at least an hour, stirring occasionally.
