This recipe was extracted from Books and My Food: With Literary Quotations and Original Recipes for Every .. (1904) by Elisabeth Luther Cary, page 57. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

porridge is not to be despised, either in sickness or health. If it is for an invalid the following rule is a good one: Wash a tablespoonful of rice and boil in a pint of water for fifteen minutes; add a pint of milk, in which a tablespoonful of flour has been stirred smooth; mix the flour with two or three spoonfuls of the milk before adding it to the remainder. Cook for an hour in a double boiler, season with a teaspoonful of salt

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
