1 quart milk

2 tablespoonfuls sugar

1 egg

2 teaspoonfuls vanilla

Mixing bowls Tablespoon Teaspoon Baking dish Egg-beater

Put 3 tablespoonfuls of pearl tapioca into half a cup of cold water and leave it for half an hour or more.

Break an egg into a mixing bowl and beat with an egg-beater until it is very light.

Add to this 2 tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoonfuls of vanilla extract, and mix them all together.

Pour over this 1 quart of milk and mix well.

Strain the water from the tapioca and add the tapioca to the mixture, and pour the whole into a pretty baking dish of some sort.

Bake for one hour in a moderate oven.

Serve cold in the same dish, with sugar and cream or milk.

This is enough for six people.
