This recipe was extracted from Every-day dishes and every-day work (1897) by E. E. Kellogg, page 84. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.
two tablespoonfuls of sugar by rubbing it over the skin of the oranges ; then peel, remove the white rind, and cut into small pieces, discarding the seeds and the central pith. Put the orange pulp in a china bowl, and set in a dish of boil- ing water. When it is hot, stir in a heaping teaspoonful of corn-starch which has been braided smooth in two spoonfuls of water. Stir constantly until the starch has cooked, and the whole becomes thickened. Beat the yolk of one egg to a cream with two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Stir this very gradually, so as not to lump, into the orange mixture, and cook two or three minutes longer. Remove from the fire, and when cool, spread between the cakes. If the oranges are not very tart, a little lemon juice is an improvement. Meringue the top of the cake with the white of the egg beaten up with the two tablespoonfuls of sugar flavored with orange. Pineapple Cake. — Prepare as for orange cake, using grated pineapple in place of oranges
