And when the Scum
rises no more, put in your Grapes, and boil them quick till they are as
clear as Crystal, I mean the white Grapes; but the red Sorts, let them boil
till they are clear, and that the Syrup will jelly; then put them into
Glasses, and when they are cold, cover them close with white Paper; but
mark your Papers, which are of the Fronteniac Kinds, for they will have a
very different Flavour from the other Sorts, an high richness that is much
admired. However, though the other Kinds of Grapes, mention'd in this
Receipt, may want a flavour by themselves, you may add some Orange-Flower
Water to the Syrup, you make for them, which will give them a fine taste.
_N.B._ Take care that when you make this Preserve, you use only one sort at
one time.
To dress a _Calf's-Head_ in a grand Dish. From Mrs. _E. Sympson._
Take a large Calf's-Head, and divide it, cut off the Muzzle, and wash it
well; then take the Brains, and wash them, and dry them, and flour them,
and put them in a Cloth, and tye them up. Boil these till they are half
done; then take them from the Kettle, and cut the Flesh off one side of the
Head, in slices, like harsh'd Meat, and the other side of the Head must
remain whole, and mark'd only with a sharp Knife, cross-ways.
