To a pint and a half of milk add a few coriander seeds, a bit of lemon peel, sugar to the palate, and boil them together ten minutes. Then put four muffins into a pan, strain the milk over them, and when they are cold, mash them with a wooden spoon; add half a gill of branch, half a pound of dried cherries, a little crated nutmeg, two ounces of Jordan almonds blanched and pounded very fine, and six eggs well beaten. Mix all together and boil in a bason, or bake it in a dish with paste round it.
