In making drinks containing eggs it
is always advisable to break each one
separately in a glass to test it. A law
requiring the date to be marked on the
shell has not yet been proposed, and
one "bad egg" will spoil the company
it mixes with.
Into a small bowl put the whites of
as many eggs as required,and beat to a
stiff froth. To each egg add a table-
spoonful of sugar. The yolks should
be beaten separately until quite thin,
then poured into the bowl. Add a large
pinch of bicarbonate of soda, and stir
briskly until a stiff batter is obtained.
More sugar may be required if not suf
ficiently thick. Unless it is to be used
at once, stir occasionally to prevent the
sugar from settling.
