*DIRECTIONS*

Break the macaroni or spaghetti into 1/2-inch lengths, put them with a pinch of salt into the milk when boiling, and simmer until tender. Add the sugar, butter, lemon-rind, and the well-beaten yolks of the eggs, stir the mixture by the side of the fire for a few minutes, but do not let it boil.

Lastly, add the stiffly-whisked whites of eggs, then turn the mixture into a greased pie-dish, and bake slowly from 25 to 30 minutes.

Time: About 1-1/2 hours. Sufficient for 3 to 4 persons.
