"Recipes Tried and True"



FROZEN CHERRIES.
Stone one quart of acid cherries; mix them with two pounds of sugar,
and stand aside one hour; stir thoroughly; add a quart of ice water;
put in the freezer, and stir rapidly until frozen; heat smooth; set
aside half an hour, and serve. That is the way to make frozen
cherries.

FROZEN AMBROSIA.
To make frozen ambrosia, pare and slice a dozen sour oranges; lay in a
bowl; sprinkle with sugar; cover with grated cocoanut; let stand two
hours; mix all together; freeze. Take up in a large glass bowl; lay
over the top thin slices of orange; sprinkle with cocoanut and sugar.

FROZEN PEACHES AND PLUMS.
Pare a dozen and a half ripe, soft peaches. Remove the skin and seeds
from a quart of sour plums; mash, and add to the peaches. Work the
kernels of both to a paste; add them to the sugar and fruit; let stand
two hours; then add a quart of ice water; stir, and freeze. This is a
delicious dish.

PINEAPPLE SOUFFLE.
Pare, and remove the eyes from two good-sized pineapples; then chop
into bits, and sprinkle with one-half pound of sugar; let the whole
stand until quite soft; then mash, and strain through a fine sieve.
To one quart of juice so obtained, add one quart of water and twelve
eggs, which have been rubbed to a cream with one and one-half pounds
of sugar. Put the mixture in a farina kettle, and cook till it
assumes the thickness of soft custard; then strain, and beat briskly
till cold.
