First--Be sure the pudding or pie
is cold before attempting to spread on
meringue. III you have store eggs,
select those having dull, rough look
ing shells. as shiny shells are never
fresh. The whites of two eggs will
cover an ordinary pudding. Separate
the white from the yolk by holding
the small end down and breaking the
egg through the middle. If tiny bit
OF yolk falls into the white. remove
with piece of the shell. Beat stin,
then add one tablespoon of granu-
lated sugar, little at a time. Sprinkle
over one-half teaspoon vanilla or
lemon fiavoring The more you beat
the better the meringue. Dip tea.
spoon In cold water, then in the egg,
and drop in little mounds on the pud,
ding. II you have coal stove, have
the oven hot. Put in the pudding and
leave the door part way open. If you
use gas. heat UP the broiler or the
oven, set in the pudding, shut the
door and turn out the gas. When il is
delicate brown, remove from the
oven but leave 1t In the kitchen or
in warm room for one hour before
setting 1t away. Meringue made this
way never fails and is good the next
day.
