PUDDING OF ROASTED ALMONDS
(Budino di mandorle tostate)
Milk, one quart.
Sugar, three and a half ounces.
Sweet almonds, two ounces.
Lady-finger biscuits, two ounces.
Three eggs.
First prepare the almonds, that is to say skin them in warm water and toast them
on the fire over a plate of iron or a stone, then grind very fine. Boil the
sugar and the lady-fingers, broken in little pieces in the milk, mixing well.
After half an hour of boiling, keeping always stirred, rub the mixture through a
sieve. Then add the toasted and ground almonds. When it is cold add the beaten
eggs, pour it in a smooth mold, whose bottom will be covered with a film of
liquified sugar and cook in a double boiler, that is to say put the mold well
closed in a kettle full of boiling water.
When cooked let it cool and place in ice-box before serving.
