FRUIT JELLY.
MRS. DUNCAN LAURIE.
Dissolve two ounces of tartaric acid in one quart of cold water, pour it on to five pounds of strawberries, currants, or raspberries. Let it stand twenty-four hours. Then strain it without pressing or bruising the fruit. To every pint of clear juice add one and one half pounds of white sugar. Stir frequently till the sugar is dissolved. Then bottle and cork air tight. Keep in a cool, dark place. When required for use dissolve one ounce gelatine in one half pint boiling water, add one and one half pints syrup. Pour in a mould and set away to stiffen. Serve with whipped cream.
