Instructions |
Simmer milk in copper vat
over low heat until it is thick and reduced to
one cup. Add sugar to taste and continue cooking
until well blended. Remove from fire, cool a
little then add lightly beaten egg yolks (to
avoid curding, add a faw tablespoons of milk to
the yolks before adding them to the milk). Add
flavoring. Continue cooking until the mixture is
thick enough to shape into small balls.
Remove from fire, cool and shape into small
balls. Dip quickly in thick syrup or roll in
confectioner's sugar. Wrap in cellophane.
To make syrup, dissolve 1 cup sugar slowly in
1/2 cup water. When it reaches boiling point,
skim off impurities from the surface. Boil to
236 degrees for until syrup reaches the ball
stage.
Note: Condensed milk may be substituted foe milk
and sugar called for in the above recipe. A
boiled mashed potato is sometimes added as
thickening. |
