Empress Rice.— Put 3oz. of rice on with enough cold water to cover it, bring this to the boil, rinse well in cold water, then put it on with a pint of single cream or new milk, 3oz. of caster sugar, and the finely pared rind of a lemon; let it boil till the rice is tender, then lift out the lemon peel, and when cool add to the rice half a pint of stiffly whipped cream, put it into a border mould, or a mould with a pipe, and set it in the ice cave for two or three hours. Serve with a rich macédoine of any kind of mixed fruit, frozen in liqueur flavoured syrup, or with a good compôte of fruit to taste, or whipped cream mixed with mashed strawberries, and set in the cave until perfectly cold. Any rich rice, semolina, rice flour, or other cereal pudding is nice if frozen in the cave and served with an iced compôte, and makes a great and wholesome treat for the children. Fruit fools, thickened with a little custard or whipped cream, can be first frozen and then moulded with excellent effect, especially if served with a compôte of any kind of fruit.
