Heart to Hearth Cookery

After the hot preserved plum and cream mixture is strained through a sieve, the receipt (recipe) Plum Tart: my Lady Sheldons Receipt states to put to it three eggs well beaten.  But always read the entire receipt as the last sentence explains that in winter put to it six eggs.  It was not winter but not yet plum season and I was using my preserved whole plums from last season so I used six eggs.
