ORANGE JELLY.

Jewish Recipes

This can be made with calf's feet or without. One quart of water will
require one ounce of isinglass, simmer the isinglass in the water,
and add the peel of one lemon and one orange; when the isinglass is
dissolved, add the juice of a lemon and six fine oranges; although the
quantity must vary according to the season for them, sweeten with half
a pound of white sugar; a Seville orange is added if there should not
be much flavor in the others.

Jewish Recipes

Lemon jelly is made in the same way; the peel of a Seville orange and
of a lemon is used, with the juice of five lemons; rather more sugar
will be required with this jelly than with the former.

Jewish Recipes

Punch jelly is made in the same way. An equal quantity of brandy
and rum, with the juice of two or three lemons is mixed with the
isinglass, which is dissolved in one pint of water, the other pint of
liquid being made up by the lemon juice and spirits.

Jewish Recipes

ROAST TURKEY. MRS. J. F. MC NEAL.

Prepare the dressing as follows: Three coffeecups of bread crumbs,

made very fine; one teaspoonful salt, half teaspoonful pepper, one

tablespoonful powdered sage, one teacup melted butter, one egg; mix

all together thoroughly. With this dressing stuff the body and

breast, and sew with a strong thread. Take two tablespoonfuls of

melted butter, two of flour; mix to a paste. Rub the turkey with salt

and pepper; then spread the paste over the entire fowl, with a few

thin slices of sweet bacon. Roll the fowl loosely in a piece of clean

linen or muslin; tie it up; put it in the oven, and baste every

fifteen minutes till done. Remove cloth a few moments before taking

turkey from oven. A young turkey requires about two hours; an old one

three or four hours. This can be tested with fork. Thicken the

drippings with two tablespoonfuls of browned flour, mixed with one cup

sweet cream.

put them into stew pan; add half cup butter; pepper and salt to taste;

CUCUMBER PICKLES. MRS. H. T. VAN FLEET.

Pour enough boiling water over pickles to cover them, and let stand

twenty-four hours; measure water so that you may know what quantity of

vinegar to use. Take them out of water, wiping each one separately

with dry towel; place in close layers in stone jar. To one gallon of

vinegar, add one cup of salt, two tablespoons of pulverized alum, same

of cloves, allspice, mustard, and cinnamon; put all in vinegar, and

let come to boil; pour this over pickles. When cool, place plate

over, and add a weight. Pickles prepared in this way will keep nicely

a year.

APRICOT KISSES
Beat the whites of two eggs until very light and
still, flavor with one-half teaspoon vanilla and then carefully fold in
one cup of fine granulated sugar. Lay a sheet of paraffin paper over the
bottom of a large baking part and drop the mixture on the paper, in any
size you wish from one teaspoon to two tablespoons. Have them some
distance apart so they will not run together. Bake them in a very
moderate oven and be careful to bake sufficiently, say forty-five
minutes. They should be only delicately colored and yet dry all through.
When done remove to a platter and break the top in, remove a little of
the inside and fill pulp of sifted peaches, sweetened and mixed with
equal parts of whipped cream. Sprinkle pistachio nuts over the top and
serve fancy cakes.
