RECIPE CORNER
Whisky Blancmange is tine for th e . grown ups, and
adaptable for children with extra milk taking the place of whisky. The pears can be
either cooked or dessert ones, but if raw, should be sprin kled with some lemon juice to prevent them browning too much. You need: I pint milk, 1
pint packet strawberry blanc mange powder. 1} oz. sugar, 2 tablespoons whisky, 1 beaten egg, . 1 medium size pears. Heat most of the milk and blend . blancmange powder
with the remainder. Stir boil ing milk into the blended mixture, add sugar and whisky and return to the heat. Stir constantly until blanc
mange powder is thick and cooked through. Remove from heat to cool a .little, beat in the egg’and mix in the fairly finely chopped, peeled pears. Pour into a mould and leave
until cold and set. This is best eaten the same day as Juice from the pears tends to soften the mixture.
