ingredients

12 egg yolks
¹⁄₂ lb sugar
1 ounce bisque crumbs
frozen apricot, sliced
ice
salt

directions

Beat egg yolks with sugar over a hot fire until steam begins to rise.
Remove from the fire to ice and continue beating until the mixture becomes quite stiff.
Stir in bisque crumbs.
Pour into a 2-quart brick or melon mold thinly lined with frozen apricots.
Pack in ice and salt for two hours.
Be careful to overfill the mold, as the mixture will shrink a little.
