1/2 a cup of rice put to boil in quart of cold water. Let it come to the boiling point, then strain the water off and add 1 quart of hot milk and the grated rind of 3 oranges.
Boil in double boiler 1 hour, then add 2 scant cups of sugar, 1/8 spoon of salt, and boil one-half hour longer, or until tender. Set away to cool. Whip 1 pint of cream, add to the cold rice with the juice of 3 oranges and freeze.

1 quart cream (very rich), yolks of 6 eggs, 1/2 pound (scant) sugar, powdered, 2 tablespoons of vanilla, 2 dozen macaroons. Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla together until very light. Then whip the cream til] very stiff and add macaroons rolled very fine. Mix the eggs and sugar with the cream. Do not stir them in or the cream will not remain stiff - but take a knife and turn the mixture in. Have ready a bucket, fill it and pack immediately in ice and salt. Have the ice all ready before whipping the cream, as it must not stand. Use a quantity of salt, as it needs to freeze quite hard, and there is not the body to it, there is to ice cream.
