“ Take the largest and fairest Rasberries you can get, and to every Pound of Rasberries take one Pound and a Half of Sugar, clarify it, and boil it till it blows very strong; then put in the Rasberries, and let them boil as fast as possible, strewing a little fine beaten Sugar on them as they boil; when they have had a good Boil, that the Sugar rises all over them, take them from the Fire, and let them settle a little, then give them another Boil, and put to every Pound of Rasberries half a Pint of Currant-Jelly ”

“ Bake your Wardens in an earthen Pot, with a little Claret, some Spice, Lemon-peal, and Sugar; when you will use them peal off the Skin and dress them in Plates, either Whole or in Halfs; then make a Jelly of Pippins, sharpened well with the Juice of Lemons, and pour it upon them, and when cold, break the Jelly with a Spoon, so will it look very agreeable upon the red Pears. ”

“ Note, In the scalding of green Plumbs, you must always have a Sieve in the Bottom of your Pan to put your Plumbs in, that they may not touch the Bottom, for those that do, will burst before the others are any thing warm. ”
