out and put layer in jelly pan; over
this spread layer of stewed apples,
sprinkle over sugar and spice, dot with
small Jumps of butter; then another thin
layer of dough, another of apple sauce
seasoned as before, very thin layer of
dough on the top. bake in moderate
oven. This is delicious dessert served
with or without sauce. Sweetened
cream is preferred to any other sauce,
although butter and sugar is good.
GRAPE JELLY.
For very white jelly take Concord
grapes and use only the pulp; but very
good white jelly can be made from any
variety by pulping carefully, 80 as not
to get dark juice from skins mixed with
pulp. The skins need not be wasted; they
may be added to those being prepared
for canning or spiced grapes. Boil pulp
gently until the seeds are loosened; strain
carefully through jelly bag little at
q time, each time emptying and rinsing
tue bag; weigh the juice and the sugar
pound for pound, and proceed as in
peach jelly. Some jelly makers prefer
rubbing pulp through sieve without
first cooking it to loosen the seeds-it
certainly makes clearer jelly. For dark
Jelly add very little water to the skins,
stew, strain and add the juice to the
strained pulp.
