Hard boil four eggs, cut
them in four pieces each, put them in a platter, and pour over them the
following sauce:
CREAM OF
LEMON SAUCE
Take one cup
of cold water,
and pour one-half of it in a bowl with one tablespoon of starch, stir
well
until starch is dissolved.
Pour the
other one-half onto
one heaping tablespoon of powered sugar and boil for a few
moments--until
sugar is thoroughly dissolved.
Allow it to
cool, and then
add the starch, and one cup of milk, a pinch of salt, a little grated
lemon-rind,
and two yolks of eggs.
Mix all thoroughly, then
strain through a sieve, then put on the stove again, and over a
moderate
fire, stir it constantly, always in the same direction, until it has
assumed
the thickness you desire.
