Instructions

  1. Wash half a pound of sago in several waters.
  2. Put it on to boil in a quart of milk, with a stick of cinnamon.
  3. Stir it very frequently, for it is apt to burn.
  4. When it becomes quite thick, take out the cinnamon and stir in half a pound of butter and an equal quantity of sugar, with a gill of wine.
  5. When cold, add six eggs and four ounces of currants that have been plumped in hot water.
  6. Bake it in a paste.
