Almond Pudding. No. 2.
Take a pound of almonds, ground very small with a little rose-water and sugar, a pound of Naples biscuits finely grated, the marrow of six bones broken into small pieces—if you have not marrow enough, put in beef suet finely shred—a quarter of a pound of orange-peel, a quarter of citron-peel, cut in thin slices, and some mace. Take twenty eggs, only half as many whites; mix all these well together. Boil some cream, let it stand till it is almost cold; then put in as much as will make[308] your pudding tolerably thick. You may put in a very few caraway seeds and a little ambergris, if you like.
