Notes: The pudding is browned on the outside and soft and moist inside. The
macaroons add nice flavor and texture. Although the original recipe called
for a "sauce flavored with orange syrup" to be served alongside, it isn't
necessary. SOURCES: Taken from Los Angeles Sunday Times Illustrated
Magazine Section, May 1898 ; reprinted in article "Times Past: Orange
Country," By Leilah Bernstein !We got this recipe from the LA Times.
