Orange Pudding

Ingredients:
3 sweet oranges
1 pt of milk
3 T of cornstarch
Little cold milk
2 eggs
1/3 C sugar
1/4 t Salt
4 T of sugar

Peel three sweet oranges, slice them length-wise into a pudding dish and sprinkle them lightly with sugar. Scald one pint of milk. Add 3 T of cornstarch with a little cold milk and stir in hot milk. When preparation thickens let cool for 15 or 20 min. Beat yolks of 2 eggs (save the whites) with 1/3 C sugar, 1/4 t Salt and stir into hot mixture. Cook until the egg is set. When cooled a little, pour over oranges. Beat whites of eggs until dry, gradually beat in 2 T of sugar, then cut and fold in 2 T of sugar. Spread this over the pudding, dredge with sugar and let cook about 12 minutes (here it doesn't say what temperature, but I would guess something like 350 F), when the meringue should be delicately tinted.
