8 lemons
1 ounce vegetable gelatine
4 ounces sugar 2 oranges
1/2 pint water
Take the oranges and lemons, and grate the rinds, and add it to the strained juice, sugar and water; put them in a saucepan, and boil five minutes; then add the gelatine, which has been soaked in a little cold water. When dissolved, pass all through a jelly-bag or hair sieve; rinse with cold water a fancy mold; put in the mixture, and allow it to set.
3/4 cup lemon juice 1 1/4 cups sugar 1 1/2 cups cold water
1/3 box - 1/4 ounce - vegetable gelatine 1 cup boiling water
Prepare the vegetable gelatine as directed, and cook in the boiling water. To the lemon juice, add the sugar and cold water and the cooked vegetable gelatine. Pour into molds which have been wet with cold water, and set in a cool place to mold. This may be served with whipped cream.
