Reception Cocoa

• 3 tablespoons cocoa.
• ⅓ cup sugar.
• A few grains salt

Scald milk. Mix cocoa, sugar, and salt, adding enough boiling water to make a smooth paste; add remaining water and boil one minute; pour into scalded milk. Beat two minutes, using Dover egg-beater, when froth will form, preventing scum, which is so unsightly; this is known as milling.
