Take a pound of flour, and a pound of loaf sugar, finely powdered : mix them with fix eggs, beaten up with a spoonful of fack, and a spoonful of rose water; add the eggs by degrees, and then work in an ounce of coriander seeds: you may make them into any form, but it is usual to put them into tin moulds, covered with paper. Set them in an oven moderately hot, till they rise and come to a good colour.
Take sixteen eggs, and beat them well, which done, add two pounds of loaf sugar in fine powder, and one pound of flour; beat them all together for two hours, then butter your moulds and coffins, fill and bake them carefully.
Take three quarters of a pound of blanched almonds, wash them in cold water, and then pound them fine in a mortar, with a little rose-water, to prevent their oiling : afterwards beat up the yolk of fix, and the white of twelve eggs, for an hour, to which add three pounds of fine sugar, and three quarters of a pound of grated bread, or fine flour : make the whole into a paste; make them into what shapes you please; set them on tin plates, lift some sugar over them, and bake them.
Take a pound of blanched almonds, wash them in clean water, and then dry them in a cloth; beat them in a mortar, with the white of an egg, till they are broke fine; then add a pound of good powder sugar, beat them together with the whites of four eggs, and musk enough to give them a scent; afterward take some out in a spoon, lay it on wafer paper, and make it of a round form: bake them on tin-plates in a flow oven.
