Ingredients 1 ingredient

  1. a teaspoonful of white pepper

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.

Method

  1. Make a white sauce with one heaping tablespoonful each of flour and butter, 1/3 of a teaspoonful of white pepper and 1 cupful and a half of milk.
  2. In a deep baking dish place alternate layers of rice, sauce, and grated cheese, having the last layer cheese.
  3. Place in a hot oven until brown.--From "Table Talk," Phila.
