Two Servings

Put a half pint of milk in a double boiler over the fire. Moisten a level tablespoonful of flour and a level teaspoonful of cornstarch with four tablespoonfuls of cold milk, and when smooth add them gradually to the hot milk, stirring all the while; when thick take from the fire and add the yolks of two eggs, mix, and stir in carefully the well-beaten whites of the eggs. Brush individual baking dishes with a little butter, put in the mixture, stand them in a shallow pan half filled with boiling water, and bake in a quick oven fifteen minutes. While these are baking, mix a teaspoonful of sugar with a teaspoonful of flour, add a half cupful of boiling water and a half teaspoonful of grated yellow rind of orange; bring to boiling point, add a tablespoonful of orange juice and strain. Serve in a little pitcher, on the tray, with the hot souffle.
