Lay out but as +much as you use at a Time, and scald the rest. + + +_To preserve green APRICOCKS._ + +Take Apricocks before the Stones are very hard; wet them, and lay +them in a coarse Cloth; put to them two or three large Handfuls of +Salt, rub them 'till the Roughness is off, then put them in scalding +Water; set them over the Fire 'till they almost boil, then set them +off the Fire 'till they are almost cold; do so two or three Times; +after this, let them be close cover'd; and when they look to be +green, let them boil 'till they begin to be tender; weigh them, and +make a Syrup of their Weight in Sugar, to a Pound of Sugar allowing +half a Pint of Water to make the Syrup; let it be almost cold before +you put in the Apricocks; boil them up well 'till they are clear; +warm the Syrup daily, 'till it is pretty thick. You may put them in +a Codling-Jelly, or Hartshorn Jelly, or dry them as you use them. + + +_To make Goosberry CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Take a Gallon of white Goosberries, nose and wash them; put to them +as much Water as will cover them almost all over, set them on an hot +Fire, let them boil a Quarter of an Hour, or more, then run it thro' +a Flannel Jelly-Bag; to a Pint of Jelly have ready a Pound and half +of fine Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; set the Jelly over the +Fire, let it just boil up, then shake in the Sugar, stirring it all +the while the Sugar is putting in; then set it on the Fire again, +let it scald 'till all the Sugar is well melted; then lay a thin +Strainer in a flat earthen Pan, pour in your Clear-Cake Jelly, and +turn back the Strainer to take off the Scum; fill it into Pots, and +set it in the Stove to dry; when it is candy'd on the Top, turn it +out on Glass; and if your Pots are too big, cut it; and when it is +very dry, turn it again, and let it dry on the other Side; twice +turning is enough. If any of the Cakes stick to the Glass, hold them +over a little Fire, and they will come off: Take Care the Jelly does +not boil after the Sugar is in: A Gallon of Goosberries will make +three Pints of Jelly; if more, 'twill not be strong enough. + + +_To make GOOSBERRY-PASTE._ + +Take the Goosberries, nose and wash them, put to them as much Water +as will almost cover them, and let them boil a Quarter of an Hour; +then strain them thro' a thin Strainer, or an Hair-Sieve, and allow +to a Pint of Liquor a Pound and half of fine Sugar, sifted thro' a +Hair-Sieve; before you put in the Sugar, set the Liquor on the Fire, +let it boil, and scum it; then shake in the Sugar, set it on the +Fire again, and let it scald 'till all the Sugar is melted; then +fill it into little Pots; when it is candy'd, turn it out on Glass; +and when it is dry on one Side, turn it again; if any of the Cakes +stick, hold the Glass over the Fire: You may put some of this in +Plates; and when it is jelly'd, before it candies, cut it out in +long Slices, and make Fruit-Jambals. + + +_To dry GOOSBERRIES._ + +Take the large white Goosberries before they are very ripe, but at +full Growth, stone and wash them, and to a Pound of Goosberries put +a Pound and half of Sugar, beat very fine, and half a Pint of Water; +set them on the Fire; when the Sugar is melted, let them boil, but +not too fast; take them off once or twice, that they may not break; +when they begin to look clear, they are enough: Let them stand all +Night in the Pan they are boil'd in, with a Paper laid close to +them; the next Day scald them very well, and let them stand a Day or +two; then lay them on Plates, sift them with Sugar very well, and +put them in the Stove, turning them every Day 'till they are dry; +the third Time of turning, you may lay them on a Sieve, if you +please; when they are pretty dry, place them in a Box, with Paper +betwixt every Row. + + +_To preserve GOOSBERRIES._ + +Take the white Goosberries, stamp and strain them; then take the +largest white Goosberries when they just begin to turn, stone them, +and to half a Pound of the Goosberries put a Pound of Loaf Sugar +beaten very fine, half a Pint of the Juice of that which is +strain'd, (but let it stand 'till it is settled and very clear) and +six Spoonfuls of Water; set them on a very quick Fire; let them boil +as fast as you can make them, up to the Top of the Pan; when you see +the Sugar as it boils look clear, they are enough, which will be in +less than half a quarter of an Hour: Put them in Pots or Glasses, +paper them close; the next Day, if they are not hard enough jelly'd, +set them for a Day or two on an hot Stove, or in some warm Place, +but not in the Sun; and when they are jelly'd, put Papers close to +'em; the Papers must be first wet, and then dry'd with a Cloth. + + +_To dry CHERRIES._ + +Stone the Cherries; and to ten Pound of Cherries, when they are +ston'd, put three Pound of Sugar very fine beaten; shake the +Cherries and Sugar well together, set them on the Fire, and when the +Sugar is well melted, give them a Boil or two; let them stand in an +earthen Pot 'till the next Day, then make them scalding hot, and, +when cold, lay them on Sieves; afterwards put them in an Oven not +too hot, where let them stand all Night, and then turn them, and put +them in again. Let your Oven be no hotter than it is after small +Bread or Pies. When they are dry, keep them in a Box very close, +with no Paper between them. + + +_To make CHERRY-JAM._ + +Take twelve Pound of ston'd Cherries, boil them, break them as they +boil; and when you have boiled all the Juice away, and can see the +Bottom of the Pan, put in three Pound of Sugar finely beaten, stir +it well, and let them have two or three Boils; then put them in Pots +or Glasses. + + +_To dry CHERRIES without Sugar._ + +Stone the Cherries, and set them on the Fire, with only what Liquor +comes out of them; let them boil up two or three Times, shaking them +as they boil; then put them in an earthen Pot; the next Day scald +them, and when they are cold lay them on Sieves, and dry them in an +Oven not too hot. Twice heating an Oven will dry any Sort of +Cherries. + + +_To dry CHERRIES in Bunches._ + +Take _Kentish_ Cherries, or _Morella_, and tye them in Bunches with +a Thread, about a Dozen in a Bunch; and when you have dry'd your +other Cherries, put the Syrup that they come out of to your Bunches; +let them just boil, cover them close, the next Day scald them; and +when they are cold, lay them in Sieves in a cool Oven; turn them, +and heat the Oven every Day 'till they are dry. + + +_To make CHERRY-PASTE._ + +Take Cherries, stone and boil them, breaking them well the while, +and boil them very dry; and to a Pound of Cherries put a Pound and a +Quarter of Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; let the Cherries be +hot when you put in the Sugar; set it on the Fire 'till the Sugar is +well melted; put it in a broad Pan, or earthen Plates; let it stand +in the Stove 'till it is candy'd; drop it on Glass, and, when dry on +one Side, turn it. + + +_To preserve CHERRIES._ + +Either _Morella_ or _Carnations_, stone the Cherries: To _Morella_ +Cherries, take the Jelly of white Currants, drawn with a little +Water; and run thro a Jelly-bag a Pint and a half of the Jelly, and +three Pounds of fine Sugar; set it on a quick Fire; when it boils, +scum it, and put in two Pounds of the ston'd Cherries; let them not +boil too fast at first, take them off some Times; when they are +tender, boil them very fast 'till they jelly, and are very clear; +then put them in the Pots or Glasses. The _Carnation_ Cherries must +have red Currants-Jelly; and if you can get no white Currants, +Codling-Jelly will serve for the _Morella_. + + +_To dry CURRANTS in Bunches or loose Sprigs._ + +When your Currants are ston'd and ty'd up in Bunches, take to a +Pound of Currants a Pound and half of Sugar; to a Pound of Sugar put +half a Pint of Water; boil your Syrup very well, and lay the +Currants into the Syrup; set them on the Fire, let them just boil, +take them off, and cover them close with a Paper; let them stand +'till the next Day, and then make them scalding hot; let them stand +two or three Days with the Paper close to them; then lay them on +earthen Plates, and sift them well with Sugar; put them into a +Stove; the next Day lay them on Sieves, but not turn them 'till that +Side drys, then turn them, and sift the other Side: When they are +dry lay them between Papers. + + +_To make CURRANT CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Strip the Currants, wash them, and to a Gallon of Currants put about +a Quart of Water; boil it very well, run it thro' a Jelly-bag; to a +Pint of Jelly put a Pound and half of Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair +Sieve; set your Jelly on the Fire, let it just boil; then shake in +the Sugar, stir it well, set it on the Fire, and make it scalding +hot; then put it thro' a Strainer in a broad Pan, to take off the +Scum, and fill it in Pots: When it is candy'd, turn it on Glass +'till that Side be dry; then turn it again, to dry on the other +Side. + +Red and white Currants are done the same Way; but as soon as the +Jelly of the White is made, you must put it to the Sugar, or it will +change Colour. + + +_To preserve RED CURRANTS._ + +Mash the Currants, and strain them thro' a thin Strainer; take a +Pint of Juice, a Pound and half of Sugar, and six Spoonfuls of +Water; let it boil up, and scum it very well; then put in half a +Pound of ston'd Currants; boil them as fast as you can, 'till the +Currants are clear and jelly very well; put them in Pots or Glasses, +and, when they are cold, paper them as other Sweet-meats. Stir all +small Fruit as they cool, to mix it with the Jelly. + + +_To make CURRANT-PASTE, either Red or White._ + +Strip the Currants, and put a little Water to them, just to keep +them from sticking to the Pan; boil them well, and rub them thro' a +Hair Sieve: To a Pint of Juice put a Pound and a half of Sugar +sifted; but first boil the Juice after it is strain'd, and then +shake in your Sugar: Let it scald 'till the Sugar is melted; then +put it in little Pots in a Stove, and turn it as other Paste. + + +_To preserve WHITE CURRANTS._ + +Take the large white Currants, not the Amber-colour'd, strip them, +and to two Quarts of Currants put a Pint of Water; boil them very +fast, and run them thro' a Jelly-bag; to a Pint of Juice put in a +Pound and half of Sugar, and half a Pound of ston'd Currants; set +them on a quick Fire, let them boil very fast, 'till the Currants +are clear and jelly very well; then put them in Pots or Glasses; +stir them as they cool, to make the Currants mix with the Jelly: +Paper them down when almost cold. + + +_To preserve RASBERRIES._ + +Take the Juice of red and white Rasberries; (if you have no white +Rasberries, use half Codling-Jelly) put a Pint and half of the Juice +to two Pound of Sugar; let it boil, scum it, and then put in three +Quarters of a Pound of large Rasberries; let them boil very fast, +'till they jelly and are very clear; don't take them off the Fire, +for that will make them hard; a Quarter of an Hour will do them +after they begin to boil fast; then put them in Pots or Glasses: Put +the Rasberries in first, then strain the Jelly from the Seeds, and +put it to the Rasberries. When they begin to cool, stir them, that +they may not all lye upon the Top of the Glasses; and when they are +cold, lay Papers close to them; first wet the Paper, then dry it in +a Cloth. + + +_To make JAM of RASBERRIES._ + +Take the Rasberries, mash them, and strain half; put the Juice to +the other half that has the Seeds in it; boil it fast for a Quarter +of an Hour; then to a Pint of Rasberries put three Quarters of a +Pound of Sugar, and boil it 'till it jellies: Put it into Pots or +Glasses. + + +_To make RASBERRY-PASTE._ + +Mash the Rasberries, strain half, and put the Juice to the other +half with the Seeds; boil them fast for a Quarter of an Hour; and to +a Pint of Rasberries put half a Pint of red Currants, boil'd with +very little Water, and strain'd thro' a thin Strainer, or Hair +Sieve; let the Currants and Rasberries boil together a little while: +Then to a Pint of Juice put a Pound and a Quarter of sifted Sugar; +set it over the Fire, let it scald, but not boil; fill it in little +Pots, set it in the Stove 'till it is candy'd, then turn it out on +Glasses, as other Cakes. + + +_To make RASBERRY CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Take half Rasberries and half white Currants, almost cover them with +Water; boil them very well a Quarter of an Hour, then run them thro' +a Jelly-bag, and to every Pint of Jelly have ready a Pound and half +of fine Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; set the Jelly on the +Fire, let it just boil, then shake in your Sugar, stir it well, and +set it on the Fire a second Time, 'till the Sugar is melted; then +lay a Strainer in a broad Pan to prevent the Scum, and fill it into +Pots: When it is candy'd, turn it on Glass, as other Clear-Cakes. + + +_To make RASBERRY-DROPS._ + +Mash the Rasberries, put in a little Water, boil and strain them, +then take half a Pound of fine Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; +just wet the Sugar to make it as thick as a Paste; put to it twenty +Drops of Spirits of Vitriol, set it over the Fire, making it +scalding hot, but not to boil: Drop it on Paper it will soon be dry; +if it will not come off easily, wet the Paper. Let them lye a Day or +two on the Paper. + + +_To dry APRICOCKS._ + +Take four Dozen and a half of the largest Apricocks, stone them and +pare them; cover them all over with four Pound of Sugar finely +beaten; put some of the Sugar on them as you pare them, the rest +after: Let them lye four or five Hours, 'till the Sugar is almost +melted; then set them on a slow Fire 'till quite melted; then boil +them, but not too fast. As they grow tender, take them out on an +earthen Plate 'till the rest are done; then put in those that you +laid out first, and let them have a Boil together: Put a Paper close +to them, and let them stand a Day or two; then make them very hot, +but not boil; put the Paper on them as before, and let them stand +two Days, then lay them on earthen Plates in a Stove, with as little +Syrup on them as you can; turn them every Day 'till they are dry, +and scrape off the Syrup as you turn them; lay them between Paper, +and let them not be too dry before you lay them up. + + +_To dry APRICOCKS in Quarters or Halves._ + +Take four Pound of the Halves or Quarters, pare them, and put to +them three Pound of Sugar fine beaten; strew some on them as you +pare them, and cover them with the rest; let them lye four or five +Hours; afterwards set them on a slow Fire, till the Sugar is melted; +then boil them, but not too fast, 'till they are tender, taking out +those that are first tender; and putting them in again, let them +have a Boil together; then lay a Paper close to them, scald them +very well, and let them lye a Day or two in the Syrup: Lay them on +earthen Plates, with as little Syrup to them as you can, turning +them every Day 'till they are dry; at last, lay them between Paper +in Boxes. + + +_To make PARING-CHIPS._ + +As you pare your Apricocks, save the clearest Parings, and throw a +little Sugar on them; half a Pound is sufficient to a Pound of the +Parings; set them on the Fire, let them just boil up, and set them +by 'till the next Day; drain the Syrup from them, and make a Syrup +with a Pound of Sugar and almost half a Pint of Water; boil the +Sugar very well, and put as much to the Chips when it is cold as +will cover them; let them stand in the Syrup all Night, and the next +Day make them scalding hot; and when they are cold, lay them out on +Boards, sift them with Sugar, and turn them on Sieves. + + +_To preserve APRICOCKS._ + +Take four Dozen of large Apricocks, stone and pare them, and cover +them with three Pound of fine beaten Sugar, strewing some on as you +pare them; let them stand, at least, six or seven Hours, then boil +them on a slow Fire 'till they are clear and tender; if some of them +are clear before the rest, take them out, and put them in again when +the rest are ready. Let them stand, with a Paper close to them, +'till the next Day; then make Codling-Jelly very strong: Take two +Pints of Jelly, two Pound of Sugar, boil it 'till it jellies; and +whilst it is boiling, make your Apricocks scalding hot, and put the +Jelly to your Apricocks, and boil them together, but not too fast. +When the Apricocks rise in the Jelly, and they jelly very well, put +them into Pots or Glasses, with Papers close to them. + + +_To make APRICOCK CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Take about three Dozen of Apricocks, pare them, and put thereto a +Pound of fine Sugar, and boil them to Pieces; then put to them two +Quarts of Codling-Jelly, boil them together very fast for a Quarter +of an Hour; run it thro' a Jelly-bag, and to a Pint of Jelly put a +Pound and half of Sugar, sifted thro' a Hair Sieve; while the Jelly +boils, shake in your Sugar, and let it scald 'till the Sugar is +melted; then put it thro' a thin Strainer, in a broad earthen Pan; +fill it in Pots, and dry it as other Clear-Cakes. If you would have +some with Pieces in them, cut some of your dry'd Quarters small; and +when the Strainer has taken off the Scum, take some of the Jelly in +a Pan, put in the Pieces, make it scalding hot again, and fill it +out. + + +_To make APRICOCK-PASTE._ + +Take two Pound of Apricocks par'd, and a Pound of Sugar fine beaten, +let them lye in the Sugar 'till it is melted; then boil it well and +mash it very small; put to it two Pints of Codling-Jelly; let it +boil together; and to a Pound of it put a Pound and a Quarter of +sifted Sugar; let your Paste boil before you put your Sugar to it, +then let it scald 'till the Sugar is melted; fill it in Pots, and +dry it in the Stove, turning it as other Paste. + + +_To make APPLE-JELLY for all Sorts of SWEET-MEATS._ + +Let your Water boil in the Pan you make it in; and when the Apples +are par'd and quarter'd, put them into the boiling Water; let there +be no more Water than just to cover them, and let it boil as fast as +possible; when the Apples are all to Pieces, put in about a Quart of +Water more; let it boil at least half an Hour; and then run it thro' +a Jelly-bag: In the _Summer_, Codlings are best; in _September_, +Golden Runnets and _Winter_ Pippins. + + +_To make APRICOCK-JAM._ + +Take two Pound of Apricocks par'd, and a Pint of Codling-Jelly, boil +them very fast together 'till the Jelly is almost wasted; then put +to it a Pound and half of fine Sugar, and boil it very fast 'till it +jellies; put it into Pots or Glasses. You may make fresh Clear-Cakes +with this, and Pippin-Jelly, in the _Winter_. + + +_To preserve GREEN JENNITINS._ + +Cut out the Stalk and Nose, and put them in cold Water on a +Coal-Fire 'till they peel; then put them in the same Water, and +cover them very close; set them on a slow Fire 'till they are green +and tender; then, to a Pound of Apples take a Pound and half of +Sugar, and half a Pint of Water; boil the Syrup, put in the Apples, +and boil them fast, 'till they are very clear, and the Syrup very +thick, almost at a Candy; then put in half a Pint, or more, of +Codling-Jelly, and the Juice of a Lemon, boil it 'till it jellies +well, and put them in Pots or Glasses. + + +_To dry GREEN PLUMS._ + +Take the green Amber Plum, prick it all over with a Pin; make Water +boiling hot, and put in the Plums, be sure you have so much Water, +that it be not cold with the Plums going in; cover them very close, +and when they are almost cold, set them on the Fire again, but not +to let them boil; do so three or four Times; when you see the thin +Skin crack'd, fling in a Handful of Allum fine beaten, and keep them +in a Scald 'till they begin to be green, then give them a Boil close +cover'd: When they are green, let them stand all Night in fresh hot +Water; the next Day have ready as much clarify'd Sugar as will cover +them; drain your Plums, put them into the Syrup, and give them two +or three Boils; repeat it two or three Days, 'till they are very +clear; let them stand in their Syrup above a Week; then lay them out +on Sieves, in a hot Stove, to dry: If you would have your Plums +green very soon, instead of Allom, take Verdigreece finely beaten, +and put in Vinegar; shake it in a Bottle, and put it into them when +the Skin cracks; let them have a Boil, and they will be very soon +green; you may put some of them in Codling-Jelly, first boiling the +Jelly with the Weight in Sugar. + + +_To dry AMBER, or any WHITE PLUMS._ + +Slit your Plums in the Seam; then make a thin Syrup. If you have any +Apricock-Syrup left, after your Apricocks are dry'd, put a Pint of +Syrup to two Quarts of Water; if you have none, clarify +single-refin'd Loaf-Sugar, and make a thin Syrup: Make the Syrup +scalding hot, and put in the Plums; there must be so much Syrup as +will more than cover the Plums; they must be kept under the Syrup, +or they will turn red: Keep them in a Scald 'till they are tender, +but not too soft; then have ready a thick Syrup of the same Sugar, +clarify'd and cold, as much as will cover the Plums; let them boil, +but not too fast, 'till they are very tender and clear, setting them +sometimes off the Fire; then lay a Paper close to them, and set them +by 'till the next Day; then boil them again 'till the Syrup is very +thick; let them lye in the Syrup four or five Days, then lay them on +Sieves to dry: You may put some in Codling-Jelly, first boiling the +Jelly with the Weight in Sugar, and put in the Plums hot to the +Jelly. Put them in Pots or Glasses. + + +_To dry BLACK PEAR-PLUMS, or MUSCLES, or the GREAT MOGULS._ + +Stone your Plums, and put them in a large earthen Pot; make a Syrup +with a Pound of single-refin'd Sugar and three Pints of Water; or if +you have the Syrup the white Plums are dry'd out of, thin it with +Water, it will do as well as Sugar; boil your Syrup well, and when +it is cold enough to hold your Hand in it, put it to the Plums; +cover them close, and let them stand all Night; heat the Syrup two +or three Times, but never too hot; when they are tender, lay them on +Sieves, with the Slit downwards to dry; put them in the Oven, made +no hotter than it is after Bread or Pyes come out of it; let them +stand all Night therein; then open them and turn them, and set them +in a cool Oven again, or in an hot Stove, for a Day or two; but if +they are too dry, they will not be smooth; then make a Jam to fill +them with. Take ten Pound of Plums, the same Sort of your Skins, cut +them off the Stones, put to them three Pound of Powder-Sugar; boil +them on a slow Fire, keeping them stirring 'till it's so stiff, that +it will lye in a Heap in the Pan; it will be boiling at least four +or five Hours; lay it on Earthen Plates; when it is cold, break it +with your Hands, and fill your Skins; then wash every Plum, and wipe +all the Clam off with a Cloth: As you wash them, lay them on a +Sieve; put them in the Oven, make your Oven as hot as for your +Skins; let them stand all Night, and they will be blue in the +Morning. The great white Mogul makes a fine black Plum; stone them, +and put them in the Syrup with or after the black Plum; and heat the +Syrup every Day, 'till they are of a dark Colour; they will blue as +well as the Muscles, and better than the black Pear-Plums. If any of +these Plums grow rusty in the _Winter_, put them into boiling hot +Water; let them lye no longer than to be well wash'd: Lay them on a +Sieve, not singly, but one on the other, and they will blue the +better: Put them in a cool Oven all Night, they will be as blue and +fresh as at first. + + +_To preserve BLACK PEAR-PLUMS or DAMASCENES._ + +Take two Pound of Plums, and cut them in the Seam; then take a Pint +and half of Jelly, made of the same Plum, and three Pound and a half +of Sugar; boil the Jelly and Sugar, and scum it well; put your Plums +in a Pot; pour the Jelly on them scalding hot: When they are almost +cold, heat them again; so do 'till they are tender, and then let +them stand two or three Days, heating them every Day; then boil them +'till they look clear and jelly: Don't boil them too fast. + + +_To preserve WHITE PEAR-PLUMS._ + +Slit your Plums, and scald them in a thin Syrup; as for drying them, +put them in a thick Syrup of clarify'd Sugar, as much as will cover +them; let them boil very slow, 'till they are very clear, sometimes +setting them, off the Fire: They must have the Weight, or something +more, of clarify'd Sugar in the Syrup: When they are very tender and +clear, put to a Pound of Plums (when they are raw) a Pint of +Apple-Jelly, and a Pound of fine Sugar, and boil it 'till it +jellies; before your Plums are cold put them into the Jelly, but not +above half the Syrup they were boil'd in, and boil them together +'till they jelly well: Put them in Pots or Glasses, with Papers +close to them. You may keep some of them in Syrup, and put them in +Jelly as you use them. + + +_To make WHITE PEAR-PLUM CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Take a good Quantity of white Pear-Plums, as many as you think will +make three Pints, with as much boiling Water as will cover them; +boil them very fast, 'till they are all to Pieces; then have ready +three Pints of Apple-Jelly, and put it to the Plums, boiling them +very fast together; then run it thro' a Jelly-bag: To a Pint put a +Pound and half of sifted Sugar; first boil the Jelly, and shake in +the Sugar; let it scald on the Fire 'till it is melted; put it in +Pots in the Stove; dry and turn it as other Clear-Cakes. + + +_To make WHITE PLUM-PASTE._ + +Take a Pound of fine Sugar, and a Pint of Water, or more, as the +Quantity you intend to make requires; set it on the Fire, let it +boil, and set a Pan of Water to boil; when it boils, put in your +Plums; let them just boil, and then take them out with a Ladle, as +they flip their Skins off; take off the Skins, and put the Plums +into the Syrup; do this as fast as you can, that they may not turn: +Boil them all to Pieces; and to a Quart of Plums put a Pint of +Apple-Jelly; boil them well together, and rub it thro' a Hair Sieve; +to a Pint of this put a Pound and a half of sifted Sugar; let the +Jelly boil before you shake the Sugar, and let it scald 'till the +Sugar is well melted; skin it, put it in Pots, and dry it in the +Stove. + + +_To make RED PLUM CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Take white Pear-Plums, half White and half Black, or if you have no +Black, one third of Damsins, and as much Water as will cover them; +boil them very well; and to a Quart of the Plums put a Quart of +Apple-Jelly; boil them very well together; run it thro' a Jelly-bag; +to a Pint of the Jelly put a Pound and Half of Sugar; let the Jelly +boil, then shake in the Sugar; let it scald, but not boil; put it +thro' a thin Strainer in a broad Pan, to take off the Scum, and put +it in Pots in a Stove: When it is candy'd, turn it as other +Clear-Cakes: You may make it paler or redder, as you best like, with +more or less black Plums. + + +_To make RED PLUM-PASTE._ + +Take half white and half red Plums, as you did for the Clear-Cakes;

boil the Jelly, and shake in the Sugar; let it scald 'till +the Sugar is melted, skin it well, and fill in Pots; dry it as other +Cakes: You may put some of this in Plates, and make Fruit-Jambals. + + +_To dry PLUMS like the FRENCH PLUMS, with Stones in them._ + +When you have laid out all your Plums that are to be stopt, put +white Pear-Plums, or any large black Plums, in an Earthen Pot, and +make your Plum-Syrup almost scalding hot; put it to the Plums, and +scald the Syrup every Day, 'till the Plums are tender and red; then +lay them on Sieves, and dry them in an Oven, turning them every Day +'till they are dry; then lay them between Papers, and keep them in a +dry Place. + + +_To dry PEACHES._ + +Stone the largest white _Newington_ Peaches, and pare them, and have +ready a Pan over the Fire with boiling Water; put in the Peaches, +and let them boil 'till they are tender; then lay them on a Sieve to +drain out all the Water; weigh them, and lay them in the Pan you +boil them in, and cover them with their Weight in Sugar; let them +lye two or three Hours; then boil them 'till they are clear, and the +Syrup pretty thick; set them by cover'd, with a Paper close to them; +the next Day scald them very well, setting them off the Fire and on +again, 'till the Peaches are thorough hot; repeat this for three +Days; then lay them on Plates to dry, and turn them every Day 'till +dry. + + +_To make PEACH-CHIPS._ + +Pare the Peaches, and cut them in thin Chips; to four Pound of Chips +put three Pound and a Half of fine beaten Sugar; let the Sugar and +Chips lye a little while, 'till the Sugar is well melted, then boil +them fast 'till they are clear; about half an Hour will do them +enough; set them by 'till the next Day, then scald them very well +two Days, and lay them on earthen Plates in a Stove; sift on them +fine Sugar, through a Lawn Sieve; turn them every Day, sifting them +'till almost dry; then lay them on a Sieve a Day or two more in the +Stove: Lay them in a Box close together, and when they have lain so +a Week, pick them asunder, that they may not be in Lumps. + + +_To preserve or dry NUTMEG-PEACHES._ + +Peel the Peaches, and put them in boiling Water;

set +them by 'till they are cold; then scald them very well; take to +every Pint of Peach a Pint of Codling-Jelly and a Pound of Sugar; +boil it 'till it jellies very well, then put in the Peaches and half +the Syrup; let them boil fast; then put them in Pots or Glasses: If +you wou'd dry them, scald them three or four Days, and dry them out +of their Syrup. + + +_To preserve CUCUMBERS._ + +Take Cucumbers of the same Bigness that you wou'd to pickle; pick +them fresh, green, and free from Spots; boil them in Water 'till +they are tender; then run a Knitting-needle through them the long +Way, and scrape off all Roughness; then green them, which is done +thus: Let your Water be ready to boil, take it off, and put in a +good Piece of Roach-Allum; set it on the Fire, and put in the +Cucumbers; cover them close 'till you see they look green; weigh +them, and take their Weight in single-refin'd Sugar clarify'd; to a +Pound of Sugar put a Pint of Water; put your Cucumbers in; boil them +a little close-cover'd; set them by, and boil them a little every +Day for four Days; then take them out of your Syrup, and make a +Syrup of double-refin'd Sugar, a Pound of Sugar and half a Pint of +Water to every Pound of Cucumbers; put in your Cucumbers, and boil +them 'till they are clear; then put in the Juice of two or three +Lemmons, and a little Orange-flower-water, and give them a Boil +altogether: You may either lay them out to dry, or keep them in +Syrup; but every Time you take any out, make the other scalding hot, +and they will keep two or three Years. + + +_To dry GREEN FIGS._ + +Take the white Figs at the full Bigness, before they turn Colour; +slit them at the Bottom; put your Figs in scalding Water; keep them +in a Scald, but not boil them 'till they are turn'd yellow; then let +them stand 'till they are cold; they must be close cover'd, and +something on them to keep them under Water; set them on the Fire +again, and when they are ready to boil, put to them a little +Verdigrease and Vinegar, and keep them in a Scald 'till they are +green; then put them in boiling Water; let them boil 'till they are +very tender; drain them well from the Water, and to every Pound +clarify a Pound and Half of single-refin'd Sugar, and when the Sugar +is cold put in the Figs; let them lye all Night in the cold Syrup; +the next Day boil them 'till they are very clear, and the Syrup +thick, and scald them every Day for a Week; then lay them to dry in +a Stove, turning them every Day; weigh your Figs when they are raw; +and when you clarify your Sugar, put half a Pint of Water to a Pound +of Sugar: If your Figs grow too dry, you may put them in their Syrup +again; they will look new to the End of the Year. + + +_To dry BLACK FIGS._ + +Weigh the Figs, and slit them at the Bottom; put them into boiling +Water, and boil them 'till they are very tender; drain them well +from the Water; then make a Syrup of clarify'd single-refin'd +Loaf-Sugar, with their Weight, and half a Pint of Water to a Pound +of Sugar; when the Syrup is cold put in your Figs; let them lye all +Night; the next Day boil them 'till they are very clear, and scald +them every Day 'till the Syrup is very thick; then lay them out as +you use them; but heat the Syrup after you have taken some out, or +they will not keep: If they grow too dry, you may put them in the +Syrup again, scalding the Syrup. + + +_To preserve GRAPES._ + +Peel the Grapes and stone them; put them in a Pan, cover them very +close; first let them boil, and set them sometimes on and off the +Fire, 'till they are very green; then drain all the Juice from them; +and to a Pint of Grapes put a Pound and a Half of Sugar, and half a +Pint of Apple-Jelly; let them boil very fast 'till they are clear, +and jelly very well: Put them in Pots or Glasses, with Paper close +to them. + + +_To dry GRAPES._ + +Take the large Bell-Grapes, just before they are ripe; stone them in +Bunches, and put them into scalding Water, covering them close with +Vine-Leaves, and a Cover on the Pan; keep them in a Scald, putting +them on and off the Fire 'till they are green; then give them a Boil +in the Water, drain them on a Sieve, and to every Pound of Grapes +make a thick Syrup of a Pound and a Half of clarify'd Sugar; and +when the Syrup is cold, put in the Grapes, and scald them every Day +'till the Syrup is thick, but never let them boil; then lay them out +on Earthen Plates, and sift them very well with Sugar; dry them in a +Stove, and turn and sift them every Day. + + +_To dry BARBERRIES._ + +Take Barberries, stone them, and tye them in Bunches, or loose in +Sprigs, which you please; weigh them, and to every Pound of +Barberries clarify two Pound of Sugar; make your Syrup with +something more than half a Pint of Water to a Pound of Sugar; put +the Barberries into the Syrup when it is scalding hot; set it on the +Fire, and let them just boil; then set them by, with a Paper close +to them; the next Day make them scalding hot, doing so for two Days; +but be sure they never boil after the first Time; when they are +cold, lay them out on Earthen Plates; sift them well with Sugar, and +the next Day turn them on a Sieve; sift them again, and turn them +every Day 'till they are dry: Your Stove must not be too hot. + + +_To preserve BARBERRIES._ + +Stone the Barberries in Sprigs; and to a Pound of Barberries make a +Syrup of a Pound and a Half of fine Sugar, with half a Pint of Water +to a Pound of Sugar: Put the Barberries in the Syrup, and let them +have a Boil; scald them every Day for four or five Days, but don't +let them boil: Put them in a Pot, and when you use any, heat the +rest, or they will not keep. + + +_To make BARBERRY-DROPS._ + +Take a good Quantity of Barberries, strip them off the Stalks; put +to them a little Water, to keep them from Burning; boil them, and +mash them as they boil, till they are very dry; then rub them +through an Hair Sieve, and afterwards strain them through a +Strainer, that there may be none of the black Noses in it; make it +scalding hot, and to half a Pint of the Pulp put a Pound of the +sifted Sugar; let it scald, and drop it on Boards or Glasses; then +put it in a Stove, and turn it when it is candy'd. + + +_To make WHITE QUINCE-MARMALET._ + +Pare Quinces, and quarter them, putting as much Water as will cover +them, and boil them all to Pieces to make Jelly; run it through a +Jelly-bag; then take a Pound of Quince, pare, quarter, and cut out +all the Hard of it; and to a Pound of Quinces put a Pound and a Half +of Sugar fine beaten, and half a Pint of Water, and let it boil +'till it is very clear; keep it stirring, and it will break as much +as shou'd be; when the Sugar is boil'd to be very thick, almost a +Candy, put in half a Pint of Jelly, and let it boil very fast 'till +it jellies: As soon as you take it off, put in the Juice of a Lemon; +skim it well, and put it in Pots or Glasses: It is the better for +having Lumps in it. + + +_To make RED QUINCE-MARMALET._ + +Pare the Quinces, quarter them, and cut out all that is hard; to a +Pound of Quinces put in a Pound and a Half of Sugar, and half a Pint +of Juice of Barberries, boil'd with Water, as you do Jelly, or other +Fruit; boil it very fast, and break it very small; when it is all to +Pieces, and jellies, it is enough: If you wou'd have the Marmalet of +a very fine Colour, put a few black Bullace to the Barberries when +you make the Jelly. + + +_To preserve WHOLE QUINCES._ + +Take a Pound of Quince par'd and quarter'd, cut out all the Hard, +put to it a Pound of fine Sugar and half a Pint of Water, and let it +boil very fast 'till it is all to Pieces; take it off the Fire, and +break it very well, that there be no Lumps in it; boil it 'till it +is very thick and well jelly'd; then take fine Muslin, and put your +Quinces into it, and tye it up round. This Quantity will make three +Quinces. Set them into three Pots, or _China_ Cups, that will just +hold one; cut off the Stalk-End of the Quince, and put it in the Pot +or Cup, to make a Dent in the Quince, that it may be like a whole +Quince; let them stand two or three Days, that they may be very +stiff; take them out of the Muslin, and make a strong Jelly with +Apples and Quinces: Take two Pints of Jelly and two Pound of Sugar, +boil it fast 'till it jellies very well; then put in the Quinces, +and let them have two or three Boils to make them hot; put them in +Pots or Glasses, with Paper close to them. + + +_To make QUINCE-CHIPS._ + +Pare the Quinces, and slice them into Water; put them into boiling +Water; let them boil fast 'till they are very tender, but not so +soft as to break them: Take them out with a Skimmer, lay them on a +Sieve 'till they are well drain'd, and have ready a very thick Syrup +of clarify'd Sugar; put them into as much as will cover them, then +boil them 'till they are very clear, and the next Day scald them; +and if you see they want Syrup, put in a Pint more, but let it be +very thick: Scald them twice more, then lay them out on Earthen +Plates in a Stove, sift them well with Sugar: Turn them and sift +them 'till they are dry. + + +_To make QUINCE-PASTE._ + +Pare the Quinces, and quarter them; to a Pound of Quince put half a +Pound of Sugar and half a Pint of Water; boil it fast 'till the +Quinces are all to Pieces; then rub it very fine, 'till there be no +Lumps in it, and put to it a Pint of Jelly of Quince, boil'd with as +much Water as will cover them, and run through a Jelly-bag; boil the +Quinces Jelly together, and to a Pint of it put a Pound and a +Quarter of fine Sugar; let it scald, but not boil, 'till the Sugar +is melted; skim it, and put it in the Stove; turn it when it is +candy'd; twice turning will do. + + +_To make QUINCE CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Pare, quarter, and boil the Quince with as much Water as will cover +it, putting in a little more as it boils, but not too much; let it +be a very strong Jelly, and run it through a Jelly-bag; put a Pound +and a Half of the finest sifted Sugar to a Pint of Jelly; let the +Jelly boil, then put in the Sugar, and let it scald 'till the Sugar +is melted; then put it through a Strainer, laid in a broad Earthen +Pan; fill it in little Pots, and when it is hard candy'd, turn it on +Glasses as other Clear-Cakes: Colour the Jelly, if you wou'd have +any Red Quince Clear-Cakes, with the Jelly of black Bullace, and let +it boil after the Red is in, before you put in the Sugar. + + +_To preserve GOLDEN or KENTISH-PIPPINS._ + +Boil the Rind of an Orange very tender, and let it lye in Water two +or three Days; then make a strong Jelly with Pippins, and run it +through a Jelly-bag. Take Golden-Pippins, pare them, and scoop out +all the Coar at the Stalk End: To twelve Pippins put two Pound of +Sugar and three Quarters of a Pint of Water, boil the Sugar and skim +it; put in the Pippins and the Orange-Rind cut into thin Slices; let +them boil as fast as they can 'till the Sugar is very thick, and +almost a Candy; then put in a Pint of the Pippin-Jelly, and boil +them very fast 'till they jelly very well; then put in the Juice of +a Lemmon, give it one Boil, and put them in Pots or Glasses, with +the Orange mix'd with them. The _Kentish_ Pippins are better in +Quarters than whole. + + +_To preserve WHOLE ORANGES or LEMMONS._ + +Rasp them very thin, just the Outside Rind off; lay them in Water +twenty four Hours; then set them on the Fire with a good Quantity of +Water; let them boil 'till they are very tender; then put them in +cold Water again, and let them lye two Days; the Lemmons need not +lye but one Day; then, to four Oranges or Lemmons put two Pound of +fine Sugar and a Pint of Water; boil and skim it, and when it is +cold, put in the Oranges or Lemmons, and let them lye four or five +Days in cold Syrup; then boil them 'till they are clear; set them by +in an Earthen Pan a Day or two more; then boil them again, and put +them in Jelly, thus: Take Pippin-Jelly, and to a Pint put a Pound of +fine Sugar; boil it 'till the Jelly is very strong; then heat your +Oranges, and put them to the Jelly, with half their Syrup; boil them +very fast a Quarter of an Hour; when you take them off the Fire, put +in the Juice of two or three Lemmons; put them in Pots that will +hold the Jelly: To four Oranges you may put one Pint and a Half of +Jelly, and one Pound and a Half of Sugar. Lemmons must be done by +themselves. _Sevil_ Oranges and _Malaga_ Lemmons are best. + + +_To dry ORANGES in KNOTS, or LEMMONS._ + +Rasp the Oranges or Lemmons with a sharp Knife, as thin and as small +as you can, and break the Rasping as little as you can, that the +Outside Rind may make but two or three Knots; then cut the Oranges, +and pick out all the Meat; and the white Rind makes another Sort of +Knots: Let both the Rinds lye two Days in a Sieve, or broad Pan, +before you boil them, or they will break; then put them in cold +Water, and boil them about an Hour; let them drain well from the +Water, and clarify as much single-refin'd Sugar as will cover them +very well; when the Syrup is cold put them in, and let them stand +four or five Days; dry them out as you use them; and when you take +any out to dry, boil them which you leave in the Syrup. They must be +candy'd out thus: Take as many as you desire to dry; the white +Halves must be cut in Rings, or Quarters, as you like them; then +take as much clarify'd Sugar as will cover them; boil them very fast +a great while, 'till the Sugar shall blow, which you may see, if you +put in a Ladle with Holes, and blow thro', you will see the Sugar +fly from the Ladle; then take it off, and rub the Candy against the +Pan Sides, and round the Bottom, 'till the Sugar looks Oily; then +put them out on a Sieve, to let the Sugar run from them; and as +quick as possible lay them in Knots on another Sieve; set them in a +Stove, they will be dry in an Hour or two: If you do but a few at a +Time, the Syrup you put to them at first will do them out. Whole +Oranges or Lemmons are done the fame Way, only boil the whole after +they are rasp'd, and cut a Hole at the Top, and pick out all the +Meat after they are boil'd, and before they are put in the Syrup; +and when they are laid on a Sieve to dry, put the Piece in again. + + +_To make CHINA CHIPS._ + +Cut the Rind of _China_ Oranges in long Chips, but very thin, and +with none of the White; boil them in Water 'till they are very +tender; then drain them, and put them into a very thick cold Syrup +of clarify'd Sugar; let them lye a Day or two; then scald them, and +when they are cold lay them to dry on Earthen Plates in a Stove. +_Sevil_ Oranges will do the same Way, if you like them with a little +Sugar, and very bitter. + + +_To make ORANGE-PASTE._ + +Rasp the Oranges, and you may make the Outside for Knots; then cut +the Oranges, and pick out all the Meat, and all the Stones from the +Meat; boil the white Rinds very tender, drain them well, and beat +them fine; to a Pint and half of the Meat put a Pound of the beaten +Rind; mix it well, make it scalding hot; then put in three Pound of +fine Sugar sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; stir it well in, and scald it +'till the Sugar is well melted; then put in the Juice of three large +Lemmons: Put the Paste in flat Earthen Pans, or deep Plates; set it +in the Stove 'till it is candy'd; then drop it on Glasses: Let what +is too thin to drop stand 'till 'tis candy'd again: Once turning +will dry it. _Sevil_ Oranges make the best. + + +_To make ORANGE-DROPS._ + +Take about a Dozen Oranges, squeeze out the Juice, boil the Rind +very tender, cut out most of the White, and beat the yellow Rind +very fine; rub it thro' an Hair Sieve, and to a Pound of the Pulp +put a Pound and a Half of fine Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve; +mix it well in, and put in the Juice 'till you make it thin enough +to drop from a Tea-Spoon: Drop it on Glasses, and set it by the +Fire; let it stand there about two Hours, and then put it in a +Stove; the next Day turn it: it will be dry in twenty four Hours. + + +_To make ORANGE-MARMALET._ + +Rasp the Oranges, cut out the Meat, boil the Rinds very tender, and +beat them very fine; then take three Pound of fine Sugar and a Pint +of Water, boil and skim it; then put in a Pound of Rind, boil it +fast 'till the Sugar is very thick; then put in a Pint of the Meat +of the Orange, (the Seeds being pick'd out) and a Pint of very +strong Pippin-Jelly; boil all together very fast, 'till it jellies +very well, which will be half an Hour; then put it in Pots or +Glasses, with Papers close to it. + + +_To make ORANGE or LEMMON CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Make a very strong Pippin-Jelly; when it is run thro' a Jelly-bag, +take a Quart of Jelly, and the Meat of three or four Oranges, boil +them together, and rub it thro' a Jelly-bag again; then take a +Quarter of a Pint of Orange-Juice, a Quarter of a Pound of fine +Sugar, and let it have a Boil; then put it into your Jelly, but +first measure your Jelly; put half the Syrup of the Oranges to a +Pint of Juice, and the Outside of an Orange, boil'd in two or three +Waters, and shred very fine; make them scalding hot together; then +to a Pint of Jelly take a Pound and a Half of Sugar, boiling the +Sugar to a Candy; then put in your Jelly, but not altogether; +because if it all boil in the hot Sugar, it will not dry: As soon as +it has done boiling, put in the rest; set it over the Fire 'till all +the Candy is well melted; but take Care it does not boil; then fill +it in little Pots, dry and turn it on Glasses, as other Clear-Cakes. +Lemmons are done the same Way. + + +_To make POMEGRANATE CLEAR-CAKES._ + +Make a strong Pippin-Jelly, and slice a Lemmon into it, Rind and +all; boil it well, and run it thro' the Jelly-bag again; then colour +it as you like it: To a Pint of the Jelly take half a Quarter of +Orange-Syrup, made as for Orange Clear-Cakes; let it have a Boil +together, and boil a Pound and a Half of Sugar to a Candy; put your +Jelly to the Candy, a little at a Time, 'till the Sugar has done +boiling, then put in all the rest; scald it 'till the Candy is well +melted, fill it in Pots, and dry it as other Clear-Cakes. + +The Colour is made thus: Take as much Carmine as you can have for +Half-a-Crown, put to it two Ounces of Sugar, and as much Water as +will wet it; give it a Boil, and then colour your Jelly with it. + + +_To make ORANGE-HALVES, or QUARTERS, with the Meat in them._ + +Rasp the Oranges round and thin, cut them in Halves, pick out the +Meat, boil the Halves very tender, then take half of them, that are +clearest and best, and put them in a thick cold Syrup, as much as +will cover them; the Syrup must be made with fine Sugar, half a Pint +of Water to a Pound of Sugar; beat the other Half of the Rinds very +fine; pick the Seeds out of the Meat; and to a Pint of the Meat put +half a Pound of the beaten Rinds; scald it very well, and stir it +into a Pound and a Half of sifted Sugar; scald it 'till the Sugar is +well melted; put in the Juice of a Lemmon or two; set it in a broad +Earthen Pan in a Stove; when the Half Orange-Rinds have lain three +or four Days in the Syrup, boil them very fast 'till they are clear, +and the Syrup very thick; when they are cold, lay them out on +Earthen Plates in a Stove; the next Day, if you think they have not +Sugar enough on them, dip them in the Syrup that runs from them; +they must not have dry Sugar on them, but only a Gloss; before they +are quite dry, fill them with the Meat; set them on a Sieve, to dry +in a Stove, which will be in a Day or two. + + +_To preserve CITRONS._ + +Take the largest _Malaga_ Citrons, cut them in four Quarters, scrape +the Rind a little, but not all the Yellow off; cut out all the Meat; +lay them in Water all Night; then boil them very tender, and lay +them in Water another Night; then drain them very well, and to three +Pound of Citron take four Pound of fine Sugar and two Quarts of +Water; make the Sugar and Water just warm, put in the Citron, boil +it half an Hour, and set it by 'till the next Day; then boil it +'till it is very clear, and put in a Pound more of Sugar, just wet +with Water, boiling it fast 'till it is melted: Put in the Juice of +four Lemmons, and put it up in large Pots. + + +_To make CITRON MARMALET._ + +Boil the Citron very tender, cut off all the yellow Rind, beat the +White very well in a Tray, or wooden Bowl, shred the Rind, and to a +Pound of the Pulp and Rind take a Pound and a Half of Sugar and half +a Pint of Water; when it boils, put in the Citron, boil it very fast +'till it is clear; then put in half a Pint of Pippin-Jelly, and boil +it 'till it jellies very well; then put in the Juice of a Lemmon: +Put it in Pots or Glasses. + + +_To candy ORANGE-FLOWERS._ + +Take the Flowers full blown, pick the white Leaves, and put them in +Water an Hour or two; then put them into boiling Water, letting them +boil 'till they are tender; then drain them from that Water, and let +them lye in cold Water, 'till you make a Syrup of very fine Sugar, +as much as you think will cover them; to a Pound of Sugar put three +Quarters of a Pint of Water; and when the Syrup is cold, put in the +Leaves, and let them lye all Night; scald them the next Day, and let +them lye in the Syrup two or three Days; then make a Syrup, (if you +have a Pound of the Flowers) with a Pound and Half of fine Sugar and +half a Pint of Water; boil and skim it, and when it is cold, drain +the Flowers from the thin Syrup, and put them in the Thick; let them +lye two or three Days; then make them just hot, and in a Day or two +more lay them out on Glasses: Spread them very thin, sift them with +fine Sugar, and put them in a Stove: Four or five Hours will dry +them on one Side; then scrape them on Paper with the wet Side +uppermost, and set them in the Stove 'till they are almost dry; then +pick them asunder, and let them be in a Stove 'till they are quite +dry: You may put some of them in Jelly, if you like it. + + +_To make ROCK-SUGAR._ + +Take a red Earthen Pot, that will hold about four Quarts, (those +Pots that are something less at the Top and Bottom than in the +Middle) stick it pretty thick with the Sticks of a white Wisk, +a-cross, one over the other; set it before a good Fire, that it may +be very hot against your Sugar is boil'd; then take ten Pound of +double-refin'd Sugar finely beaten, the Whites of two Eggs beaten to +a Froth in half a Pint of Water, and mix it with the Sugar; then put +to it a Quart of Orange-flower-water and three half Pints of Water, +setting it on a quick Fire; when it boils thoroughly put in half a +Pint of Water more to raise the Scum, and let it boil up again; then +take it off and skim it; do so two or three Times, 'till it is very +clear; then let it boil, 'till you find it draw between your +Fingers, which you must often try, with taking a little in the +Ladle; and as it cools, it will draw like a Thread; then put it into +the hot Pot, covering it close, and setting it in a very hot Stove +for three Days: It must stand three Weeks; but after the three first +Days a moderate Fire will do; but never stir the Pots, nor let the +Stove be quite cold: Then take it out, and pour out all the Syrup, +the Rock will be on the Sticks and the Pot-sides: set the Pots in +cold Water, in a Pan, on the Fire, and when it is thorough hot all +the Rock will slip out, and fall most of it in small Pieces; the +Sticks you must just dip in hot Water, and that will make the Rock +slip off; then put in a good Handful of dry Orange-Flowers, and take +a Ladle with Holes, and put the Rock and Flowers in it, as much as +will make as big a Lump as you wou'd like; dip it in scalding Water, +and lay it on a Tin Plate; then make it up in handsome Lumps, and as +hollow as you can: When it is so far prepar'd, put it in a hot +Stove, and the next Day it will stick together; then take it off the +Plates, and let it lye two or three Hours in the Stove; if there be +any large Pieces, you may make Bottoms of them, and lay small Pieces +on them. + + +_To make FRUIT-BISCUIT._ + +Scald the Fruit, dry it well from the Water, and rub it through a +Hair Sieve; stir it in a Pan over a slow Fire, 'till it is pretty +dry; the stiffer it is, the better; then take two Pound of fine +Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve, and a Spoonful of Gum-Dragon +steep'd very well, and strain'd, and about a Quarter of a Pound of +Fruit; mix it well with Sugar, beat it with a Biscuit-Beater, and +take the Whites of twelve Eggs, beat up to a very stiff Froth; put +in but a little at a Time, beating it 'till it is all in, and looks +as white as Snow, and very thick; then drop it on Papers, and put it +in an Oven; the Oven must be very cool, and shut up, to make them +rise: The Lemmon-Biscuit is made the same Way, only instead of Fruit +put in the Juice of three Lemmons; less will make two Pound; it must +have Juice enough to make it to a Paste, and the Rinds of two +Lemmons grated; and when it is beaten enough, put in a little Musk, +or Amber, and drop and bake it as other. + + +_To make all Sorts of SUGAR-PASTE._ + +Sift your Sugar thro' a Lawn Sieve, then sift some Starch as fine; +to a Pound of Sugar put a Quarter of a Pound of Starch; make it of +what Colour you please, into a stiff Paste; putting thereto +Gum-Dragon well steep'd in Orange-Flower-Water; beat it well in a +Mortar, and make it in Knots or Shells in a Mould or Moss, with +rubbing it thro' an Hair Sieve: The Red must be colour'd with +Carmine;

wet +it more than a Candy with Water; boil it pretty fast 'till it is +almost at a Candy Height; then put in about three Drops of Spirit of +Wormwood, and fill it into little Coffins made of Cards; when it +boils in the Coffins it is enough; you must not boil above half a +Pound at a Time, or less: The Spirit of Wormwood must be that which +looks black, and as thick as Oil, and must have two or three Boils +in the Cakes after you put it in. + + +_To make HONEYCOMB-CAKES of ORANGE-FLOWER-VIOLET of COWSLIPS._ + +Take about half a Pound of fine Sugar, sifted thro' an Hair Sieve, +wet it more than for a Candy, with Orange-Flower-Water, for the +Orange-Flower-Cakes, and fair Water for the other Cakes;

then drain them from the Water, and +set them by the Fire, stirring them 'till they are a little dry and +very hot; then put to them fine Sugar sifted, enough to hang about +them. (They must not be so wet as to make the Sugar like Paste; nor +so dry, but that the Sugar may hang together.) Then lay them in +Lumps on Wafer-Paper, and set them on Papers in an Oven, after +Puffs, or any very cool Oven that Pies have been baked in. + + +_To make ORANGE or LEMMON-PUFFS._ + +Take a Pound of fine sifted Sugar, and grate the Outside Rind of two +large Oranges or Lemmons; put the Rind to the Sugar, and beat them +well together in a Mortar; grind it well with a Pestle, and make it +up to a stiff Paste with Gum-Dragon well steep'd; then beat the +Paste again, rowl or square it, and bake it in a cool Oven, on +Papers and Tin-Plates. + + +_To make ALMOND-PASTE, either BITTER or SWEET: The BITTER are +RATAFEA._ + +Blanch and beat a Pound of Almonds; put in just Rose-Water enough to +keep them from Oiling; then take a Pound of fine Sugar, and boil it +to a Candy; and when it is almost at a Candy Height, put in the +Almonds; stir them over a cool Fire 'till it is a very dry stiff +Paste, and almost cold, and set it by 'till it is quite cold; then +beat it well in a Mortar, and put to it a Pound and a Half of fine +sifted Sugar; rub it very well together, and make it up with a +Spoonful of well-steep'd Gum-Dragon and Whites of Eggs, whip'd to a +Froth; then squirt it, and bake it in a cool Oven; put into the +Sweet-Almonds the Rind of a Lemmon grated, but none in the Bitter: +If you don't make the first Paste stiff, they will run about the +Oven.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. |
