One-third pound of quince marmalade to whites of two eggs and quarter pound of sugar ; pile in a pyramid in a dish and bake a pale yellow. ORANGE SNOW. Four large, sweet oranges ; juice of all and grated peel of one ; juice and half the grated peel of one lemon ; one package of gelatine soaked in a cup of cold water ; whites of four eggs whipped stiff ; one large cup of powdered sugar ; one pint of boiling water. Mix juice and peel of the fruit with the soaked gelatine, add the sugar, stir up well and let stand an hour. Then pour on the boiling water and stir until clear. Strain through a coarse cloth, pressing and wringing it hard. When quite cold, whip in the frothed whites gradually, until thick and white. Put into wet mold for eight hours. GOOSEBERRY FOOL, Take green gooseberries ; to every pint of pulp add one pint of milk, or one-half pint of cream and one-half pint of milk ; sugar to taste. Cut the tops and tails of the gooseberries ; put them in a jar with two tablespoonfuls of water and a little moist sugar. Set this jar in a saucepan of boiling water, and let it boil until the fruit is soft enough to mash. When done enough beat it to a pulp, work this pulp through a colander, and stir to every pint the above proportions of milk, or equal quanties of cream and milk. Ascertain if the mixture is sweet enough, and put in plenty of sugar, or it will not be eatable; and in mixing the milk and gooseberries, add the former very gradually to these. This, although a very old-fashioned and homely dish, is, when well made, very delicious, and a very suitable dish for children. FRIED APPLES. Quarter tart apples without peeling ; have some nice salt pork fryings, or butter if preferred, and lay the apples close together, skin side down ; cover till well steamed ; then uncover and brown both sides, turning and watching closely to prevent burning. ORANGE SNOWBALLS. Boil some rice for ten minutes, drain and allow it to cool ; pare some oranges closely ; spread the rice, as many portions as there are oranges, on some pudding cloths ; tie the fruit, surrounded by the rice, separately in these and boil the balls for one hour ; turn them out carefully on a flat dish ; a colored dish is prettiest, of the green majolica that is now so inexpensive ; sprinkle them with a quantity of powdered sugar candy (the biight colored steam candy that comes done up in pound packages makes a pretty flavoring and sweetening when crushed fine with a rolling pin) ; serve with sauce or sweetened cream. MOONSHINE. Beat the whites of six eggs into a very stiff froth, then add gradually six tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, beating for not less than fifteen minutes ; then beat in one heaping tablespoonful of preserved peaches cut in tiny bits. In serving, pour in each saucer some rich cream sweetened and flavored with vanilla, and on the cream place a liberal portion of the moonshine. This quantity is enough for seven or eight persons. PEACH FLOAT. The whites of four eggs, beaten to a stiff froth ; six peaches stewed until soft enough to mash; sweeten peaches to taste and mix in the whites of the eggs. FRUIT SAUCES. 487 RASPBERRY FLOAT.
