ORANGE MOULD (1)

7 oranges
1 lemon
4 oz. of cornflour
4 oz. of sugar
4 eggs
some water

Take the juice of the oranges and lemon and the grated rind of the latter. Add enough water to the juice to make 1 quart of liquid. Set that over the heat to boil (keeping back a 1/4 of a pint for mixing the cornflour smooth), and add the sugar. Separate the yolks of the eggs from the white; beat up the yolks and add them to the cornflour and juice when those are smooth. When the liquid over the heat boils, stir in the mixture of eggs, cornflour, and juice, and keep all stirring over the heat for 2 minutes. Have ready the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff froth, mix it lightly with the rest, and pour the mixture into wetted moulds. Turn out when cold and serve when required.
