(Individual Rule).
½ cup thin cream or ¼ cup thick cream and ¼ cup milk. 2 tablespoons sugar.
1¼ tablespoons boiling water. 1/3 teaspoon vanilla. Speck salt.

1 pint milk.
1 cup sugar.
5 tablespoons flour.
1 scant cup sugar for caramel.
2 eggs. Speck salt. 1 quart cream.
Scald the milk; mix one cup sugar, flour and salt, add the eggs and beat all together until perfectly smooth and light. Add the scalding milk gradually, beating until very smooth. Cook in double boiler twenty minutes.
While cooking, prepare caramel. Put the second cup of sugar in saute pan, and cook until melted and a delicate brown; add gradually the custard, stirring constantly; strain and cool. Add the cream (which has been scalded and cooled) and freeze in large freezer.
This may be used for vanilla ice-cream by omitting the caramel and using one tablespoon vanilla and enough of the second cup of sugar to sweeten.
