Boil together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water and thicken with cornstarch. Beat 2 or 3 yolks in a bowl with 4 tablespoons of wine and 2 of sugar; when it is frothy with beating pour the thickened sauce to it, whisk again and serve as sauce to fritters and puddings. Other flavorings can be used, rum is frequently employed or brandy when for plum pudding. The golden sauce No. 743 is nearly the same thing if whisked to a foam, and does not require liquor or wine - which suits a temperance house like this we are writing of.
