To Make Goosberry-paste Recipe

Take the Goosberries, nose and wash them, put to them as much Water

as will almost cover them, and let them boil a Quarter of an Hour;

then strain them thro' a thin Strainer, or an Hair-Sieve, and allow

to a Pint of Liquor a Pound and half of fine Sugar, sifted thro' a

Hair-Sieve; before you put in the Sugar, set the Liquor on the Fire,

let it boil, and scum it; then shake in the Sugar, set it on the

Fire again, and let it scald 'till all the Sugar is melted; then

fill it into little Pots; when it is candy'd, turn it out on Glass;

and when it is dry on one Side, turn it again; if any of the Cakes

stick, hold the Glass over the Fire: You may put some of this in

Plates; and when it is jelly'd, before it candies, cut it out in

long Slices, and make Fruit-Jambals.
