1 pint of strawberry juice and pulp. 2/3 cup of sugar. 1/3 two-ounce package of gelatine. The juice of one lemon. 1/3 cup of cold water.
Crush the berries and pass them through a fine sieve or piece of cheesecloth, thus removing the seeds, which are for many people an objectionable feature. Soften the gelatine in the cold water and dissolve by setting the dish in hot water; add the sugar and when cool the lemon and strawberry juice. Mould in a ring mould. Serve with orange sections, freed from membrane and skin, or with whipped cream.
