Fruit Jelly Make a plain lemon jelly, as before. Cut up very thin two oranges, one banana, six figs, and a handful of white grapes, which you have seeded, and sweeten them. Put in a mould and pour in the jelly; as it begins to grow firm you can gently lift the fruit from the bottom once or twice. You can also fill the mould quite full of fruit, and make only half the jelly and pour over. Whipped cream is nice to eat with this. Coffee Jelly 1/2 box of gelatine. 1/2 cup of cold water. 1 pint strong hot coffee. 3/4 cup sugar. 1/2 pint boiling water. Put the gelatine in the cold water and soak two minutes, and pour over it the coffee, boiling hot. When it is dissolved, put in the sugar and boiling water and strain; put in little individual moulds, and turn out with whipped cream under each one. Or, set in a large mould, and have whipped cream around it. |
