Put in a saucepan half a pint of water with four ounces of granulated sugar, and place it on the stove, adding a teaspoon-ful of caramel (No. 1252); when boiling add half an ounce of corn-starch, diluted in two tablespoonfuls of cold water, stir well with a spatula, and let cook for two minutes. Remove from the fire, and add immediately half a gill of Jamaica rum, mixing well, then strain it through a fine sieve into a bowl. Lay a dessert-dish over the mold, turn the pudding onto it, pour the sauce over, and serve.
