Calf's Feet Jelly No. 1
- 1 quart of cold water
- 1 1/4 ounce of gelatine
- 4 lemons, juice and rinds
- 2 sticks of cinnamon
- 3 gills of wine
- 4 eggs, whites and shells, (whip the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth)
- 14 ounces of sugar
To one quart of cold water take one ounce and a quarter of gelatine, and set it on the stove until dissolved. To this quantity take four lemons, juice and rinds, two sticks of cinnamon, three gills of wine, four eggs, whites and shells, (whip the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth) and fourteen ounces of sugar. Mix all well together, and place it on the stove until it boils up once; then pour it through a flannel bag, several times, if necessary, until it runs clear. Place the bag near the fire to prevent the liquid from congealing before running through it.
