CARRAGEEN, OR IRISH MOSS.
Take one ounce of moss; wash it very well, and let it soak for a few minutes: put on to boil four quarts of milk; when boiling, put in the moss; let it boil for four or five minutes, then strain it into moulds; season with sugar, rose water, or any thing you prefer; if vanilla is preferred, boil part of a bean in the milk.
