  1. Put a pint of milk with a bit of cinnamon to boil.
  2. Mix a large tablespoonful of ground rice quite smooth with a tea-cupful of milk.
  3. Pour this into the boiling milk, stirring quickly all the time in order to render it smooth.
  4. Add sugar to sweeten.
  5. Stir the ground-rice milk on the fire while boiling for ten minutes.
  6. Remember, that whenever you are stirring any kind of sauce, gruel, porridge, or thick milk, etc., on the fire, it is most essential that you should bear with some weight on the edge of the bowl of the spoon to prevent whatever is being stirred from burning at the bottom of the saucepan, as such an accident would infallibly spoil the gruel, etc.
