vonf range. ALLOW TO simmer slowly for
two hours. Then remove from the fire
and stir in half box ef galatine we'll
absorbed IN a half cup Of cold water.
Add the juice Of Onb lemon and sugar to
taste.
/ never give the exact quantity Of
sugar in any OF my receipts, because
some people like desserts very sweet in
deed, and others do not, particularly
gentlemen, and they so often complain
of the intense sweetness Of desserts.
Strain your jelly through a flannel
until perfectly clear, pour it into dish
and stir well with fork or egg-6eater;
putin mold and set on the ice. Serve
with cream.
Another very good dessert is jelly Of
mixed fruits. Dissolve half box OF
gelatine in half pint of cold water, the
Juice and rind Of two lemons, and two
or three sticks of cinnamon, and let it
stand for one hour; then add pint and
half OF boiling water, little sugar,
and one wine glass of wine and little
brandy. Strain through flannel until
perfectly clear Pour a little OF it into
a mold, and when the jelly is sufficient
~ stiff place on top Of IL about two doz-
en- large strawberries and the same num-
Der OF raspberries or ripe cherries, from
which you have removed the stones, and
about two ounces of pineapple and the
same of curranJs when in season. Pour
the rest of your jelly into the mold and
put all on the ice until sufficiently cold.
BRAIN AS AN INGREDIENT.
Ofcourse, it is necessary to reduce the
water in summer or add little more gel
atiue; but judgment must be used in this
as in all cases in life, though it Is rare
virtue among cooks. and the poor mis-
treSs generally has TO supply the brains
for all her servants.
II you have a cook capable of exerciS-
ing little judgment keep her by all
means, no matter what her other faults
may be. 1t will be difficult TO get an
other. Judgment, and great deal Of
il, must be used in cooking, as IL is al
most impossible to 60 exactly by any
given receipt, as conditions vary and
the fire may be hotter one day than an
other,
SOMETHING REFRESHING.
Frozen coffee in cups, with whipped
cream on top, is very good 10 finish
luncheon in summer. Make about one
quart of good coffee, not too strong,
but Just as you would make it TO drink
for breakfast. Stir into it little less
than one pint of cream, sugar enough
to make it extra sweet, as IL is neces-
Sary for everything TO be that IS frozen.
When it is perfectly cold pour in the
tin pail belonging TO 1t. Surround 1t
with chopped ice, mixed with about
half pound of rock salt, and then
turn the handle at the side Of the pail
rapidly for about five minutes.
Take of the cover OF the can and
with a spoon detach any of the cream
which may have frozen to the side and
may get icy and spoil all the rest. Again
put an the cover and continue turning
rapidly, occasionally uncOyering and re-
peating the operation just described OF
| detachng the cream from the sides. II
is not necessary to freeze it as hard as
for ice cream, as you do not want it
solid About fifteen minutes ought TO
/ freeze il enough.
Then take out the dasEer, pack it
down smoothly and cover tightly; put
it back again in the pail and surround
I 10 again with chopped ice and about two
or three handSful of rock salt and leave
until just before serving. Then take il
out with a spoon and put it in small
after-dinner coffee cups, with the whip
ped cream on top, and send immediate
ly 70 the table, as it melts very quickly
much more so than ice cream.
Serve with the coffee, cake, sweets or
candy or anything that you may wish to
finish with.
A PLEASANT SIDE DISH.
Blanched almonds are very good, and
easily blanched. You simply shell your
almonds and throw them into boiling
water and let them stand in 1t for few
seconds, and then take them out one at
"a time and peel off the thin skin. The
bailing water softenS it and makes 1t
come of easily. Put them in a pan and
sprinkle about a handful of salt over
them and send to a quick oven. Watch
them carefully and shake the pan ocCa-
sionaly 10 prevent them sticking to the
pan and burning.
The quantity OF all the above receipts
is an ample supply for six or eight
people.
A Wonderful Machine.
There is no doubt that man is a fine
