19 Hings Whim Take half a pound of Rice, boil it in Milk 'till it is quite dry, put it in a round dish and make a deep well, make a rich Custard, and put a chain [railing?] round the wall of colour'd paste, the broader the more handsome, and sweetmeats to your Taste, to be fill'd with the Custard. To fry Oysters Take a score or two of the largest Oysters you can get, the yolks of four or five Eggs beat them well, and put to them a little Nutmeg, Pepper, and Salt, a spoonful of Flour, and a little shred Parsley, dip in your Oysters, and fry them a light brown. They are very proper to lay about stew'd Oysters, or any other Fish, and are a pretty Dish of themselves To stew Oysters Take a score or two of Oysters, as you have occasion, put them in a stew Pan, with a few Bread Crumbs, and a little Water season them with a little bruised Mace, and Pepper, a lump of Butter, and a little Vinegar, but do not make it too sour boil them together, but not too long if you do it will make them hard. garnish with Bread sippet
