Orange Pudding. No. 2.
Grate off the rind of two large Seville oranges as far as they are yellow; put them in fair water, and let them boil till they are tender, changing the water two or three times. When they[318] are tender, cut them open, take away the seeds and strings, and beat them in a mortar, with half a pound of sugar finely sifted, until it is a fine light paste; then put in the yolks of ten eggs well beaten, five or six spoonfuls of thick cream, half a Naples biscuit, and the juice of two more Seville oranges. Mix these well together, and melt a pound of the best butter, or beat it to a cream without melting: beat all light and well together, and bake it in a puff paste three quarters of an hour.
