As Rice (raw) is for tame Pigeons, and they like it
best, varying it sometimes with right tares, and other seeds.
CREAM WITH RICE
A very good Cream to eat hot, is thus made. Into a quart of sweet Cream,
put a spoonful of very fine powder of Rice, and boil them together
sufficiently, adding Cinnamon, or Mace and Nutmeg to your liking. When it
is boiled enough take it from the fire, and beat a couple of yolks of
new-laid Eggs, to colour it yellow. Sweeten it to your taste. Put bread to
it, in it's due time.
GREWEL OF OAT-MEAL AND RICE
Doctor Pridion ordered my Lord Cornwallis, for his chief diet in his
looseness, the following grewel, which he found very tastefull.
Take about two parts of Oat-meal well beaten in a Mortar, and one part of
Rice in subtile powder. Boil these well in water, as you make water-grewel,
adding a good proportion of Cinnamon to boil also in due time, then strain
it through a cloth, and sweeten it to your taste.
The yolk of an Egg beaten with a little Sherry-sack, and put to it, is not
bad in a looseness.
