227.—To Ornament a Bee-hive.
Before you begin to boil the sugar take as many borders out of
your gum paste moulds as will go round the bottom; also take out
leaves for the top; run a husk round the sides to represent the
matting of the hive, lay your borders and leaves on a marble slab,
with a cloth over them to keep them moist. You may also twist a
length of gum paste like a wreath and make it into a large ring; this
must be dried; then fix on the ornaments with a little hot sugar and
set the ring upright on the top. You may then spin long lengths of
sugar very fine on to a tin plate. Take the bees and fix them with hot
sugar on the top and sides of the hive; break the lengths of sugar in
short pieces and fix them in the holes made in the bees. You may
also form three entrances into the hive with the gum paste husk.
XI. COLOURING SUGAR.
230.—Blue Colouring.
Take a fig of the best indigo, dip one side in warm water and rub it
on a marble slab until you gain the strength you want; or if you wish
for a quantity, put a fig into a small cup, drop a tablespoonful of
water upon it, and let it stand half an hour; then pour off the water
at the top, and you will have a fine smooth colour.
231.—Carmine Colouring.
Take carmine, No. 24 or 40, 1 dr., liquor potassæ 2½ drs., water 2
ozs., glycerine sufficient to make 4 ozs. Rub the carmine to a paste
with liquor potassæ and add the water and glycerine. This is a
splendid red, and works well with liquor acids.
232.—Green Colouring.
Take some strong saffron colour and a little of the fine melted
blue; mix them well together, which will make a green colour. If you
want a pale green, use more yellow; if a dark green, use more blue.
233. Another Way.—Take a quantity of spinach, pick the leaves
from the stalks, put them very tight down in a small pan, add a
small quantity of water, cover them closely up, and set the pan on a
warm stove for two hours; then turn the leaves into a coarse canvas,
and let two persons twist it round until all the liquor is squeezed out;
set it on a clear fire in a small pan, and let it boil one minute. When
cold, bottle and cork it tight.
Note.—The vegetable colouring bought at shops which
manufacture it specially for confectioners is the safest, cheapest,
and best.
234.—Orange Colouring.
Take one tablespoonful of cochineal colour and the same quantity
of the saffron liquor; mix them together and you will have an orange
colour. If it be too red, add a little more yellow; if it be too yellow,
add a little more red.
235.—Red Colouring.
Beat 1 oz. of cochineal fine in a mortar, to which put 1½ pint of
soft water and ½ oz. of cream of tartar; simmer them in a pan for
half an hour over a slow fire. Take it off, and throw in ½ oz. of roach
alum to strike the colour. You may ascertain the strength by dipping
in a piece of writing paper. If not sufficiently strong, simmer it again
for a short time. When nearly cold, strain it through a strong piece of
canvas, and before you bottle it add 2 ozs. of double refined sugar.
236.—Yellow Colouring.
Put the best saffron down tightly in a small jar, pour a little boiling
water over it, cover it closely up, and set it in a warm place for half
an hour, turning it two or three times in the water; then strain and
bottle it for use.
XII. LOZENGES.
237.—Peppermint Lozenges.
Take some finely powdered loaf sugar, put it on a marble slab,
make a bay in the centre, pour in some dissolved gum, and mix into
a paste, flavour with the essence of peppermint, roll the paste on
the marble slab until it is about an eighth of an inch thick. Use
starch-powder to dust it with; this keeps it from sticking. Dust the
surface with a little starch-powder and sugar, and rub it over with
the palm of your hand. Cut out the lozenges and place them on
wooden trays, and place them in the stove to dry. All lozenges are
finished in the same way.
238.—Rose Lozenges.
Make the paste the same way as the preceding, and use essence
of roses to flavour with; colour the paste with cochineal.
239.—Ginger Lozenges.
1 oz. of powdered ginger, 1 lb. of powdered sugar. Mix to a paste
with dissolved gum; colour with yellow.
241.—Cinnamon Lozenges.
Mix as the others; flavour with cinnamon in powder, adding a few
drops of essential oil. Colour with coffee colour.
242.—Clove Lozenges.
1 oz. of cloves powdered and 2½ lbs. of sugar. Mix, and finish as
for the others.
243.—Nutmeg Lozenges.
¼ oz. of oil of nutmeg, 2 lbs. of sugar. Mix as instructions for the
others.
244.—Lavender Lozenges.
Mix as for others; flavour with English oil of lavender, and colour
with a little cochineal and blue mixed.
245.—Vanilla Lozenges.
Use essence of vanilla or the stick pounded with sugar and sifted
through a fine hair sieve.
246.—Brilliants.
Take either of the pastes for lozenges and cut into small fancy
devices or ornaments.
XIII. ICE CREAMS.
The genuine recipe for making ice creams will be found below.
The first operation is the thorough scalding of the cream, sugar, and
eggs: this gives it greater body and richness.
250.—Hokey Pokey.
This article is not an ice cream proper, but a species of frozen
custard made of milk, eggs, sugar, gelatine, and flavouring. Take 2
ozs. of gelatine, dissolve in ½ pint of milk or water, then to 4 quarts
of milk and 8 eggs slightly beaten add 1½ lb. of sugar and the thin
yellow rind of 2 lemons, and a pinch of salt; put the ingredients into
a clean, bright basin, place on a moderate fire, and stir constantly till
it begins to thicken, then remove quickly, and pour it into an earthen
pan and continue to stir it till nearly cold, then add and stir in the
dissolved gelatine; pour all into your freezer and freeze as for other
ices. When frozen it may be put in small boxes about three inches
long by two inches wide, or it may be wrapped in wax paper and
kept ready for sale in an ice cave. The office of the gelatine is to
solidify the compound and assist its “keeping” qualities.
251.—Cocoanut Ice.
Take grated white meat of 3 fine cocoanuts and the milk they
have contained, to which add 3 quarts of filtered water; place on the
fire and boil for ten minutes, then pour it into an earthen or
stoneware crock, cover, and let it infuse till nearly cold, then strain
and press off the liquid with a fine sieve; to this liquid add 1¼ lb. of
pulverised sugar and the whites of 3 eggs; mix all thoroughly well
together and pour it into the freezer already imbedded in ice and
salt. Freeze and finish as other ices.
XIV. PRESERVING FRUITS.
252.—Large Strawberries.
Procure the largest Carolina or Hanoverian strawberries, pack two
layers with care in a flat-bottomed preserving pan, then pour over
them 1 pint of currant juice, cover them with smooth clarified sugar,
and over it a sheet of paper, set them on a warm part of the stove
until the syrup is new-milk warm, then take them off; next morning
take them out one at a time with an egg-spoon and lay them on a
fine splinter sieve set over a pan to drain; add to the syrup a little
clarified sugar and boil it to the degree called “pearled,” put in the
fruit with care and simmer them round; as soon as the syrup is off
the degree called pearled, take them from the stove, skim, and put
them with great care into a flat pudding pot, cover them up for two
days, then lay them on a splinter sieve to drain, and add to the
syrup 1 or 2 pints of clarified sugar as occasion may require, with
the proportion of red currant juice, boil it to the degree called
pearled, and put in your fruit with great care and simmer them very
gently round the sides of the pan; as soon as the syrup is off the
degree called pearled skim them and put them into jars, filling them
within half an inch of the top. When cold cover them with writing-
paper dipped in brandy and bladder them over.
253.—Strawberry Jam.
Take any quantity of scarlet strawberries, pass them through a
fine splinter sieve, add to them 1 or 2 pints of red currant juice,
according to the quantity of strawberries, put the same weight of
sifted loaf sugar as fruit, boil them over a bright fire, keep stirring all
the time with a spatter, and with it make a figure of eight in the pan
to prevent the jam taking hold of the bottom; when it has boiled ten
minutes take it off and take a little jam out with a scraper, which
drop upon a plate; if it retains the mark of the scraper it is of a
proper consistency and ready to put into jars, but should it run thin
on the plate it must be boiled again until of the substance above
named. It is necessary here to observe that all sorts of red fruit
should be kept as short a time as possible on the fire, and for that
reason let your fires be perfectly bright before you use them.
254.—Raspberry Jelly.
Take 4 quarts of clear raspberry juice, add to it 8 pounds of sifted
lump sugar, set it on a clear fire in your preserving pan, stir it with
the spatter to keep it from burning; let it rise, then take it from the
fire, skim it, set it on the fire again, and let it rise three or four
times, skimming it each time. If, on taking out the skimmer, small
flakes hang from it, it is of a proper consistency and may be put into
jars. When cold cover it with writing-paper dipped in brandy, and
bladder them over.
257.—Apple Jelly.
Take codlin apples, cut them very thin across, fill your preserving
pan nearly full, cover them with soft water and then with a sheet of
paper, set them on a slow fire, let them simmer slowly for a
considerable time to extract the jelly from the apple. They must not
on any account be stirred about in the pan. When the virtue appears
to be quite extracted from them pour them into a jelly-bag. Cut
more apples as before, about half the quantity, put them into the
pan, and pour over them the extract from the first apples, simmer
them very slowly as before. When the essence is all extracted put
them into a jelly-bag. This jelly is used in the putting up of all
preserved fruits.
258.—Gooseberry Jam.
Take 7 lbs. of clean, picked, dry gooseberries, put them into your
preserving pan with 1 pint of water and 7 lbs. of sifted loaf sugar.
Boil over a clear fire from twenty minutes to half an hour; when they
are boiled to the consistency required take them off, put them into
jars and secure them from the air as the others.
259.—Orange Marmalade.
Take 12 Seville and 12 China oranges, pare the outer skin off as
thin as you can, lay it in soft water and freshen it every two hours to
take out the bitterness, then pull off the white skin from the pared
oranges and throw it away; cut them across, squeeze the juice from
them, and set them on the fire in the preserving pan with plenty of
soft water, boil them until so soft as to pulp through a hair sieve.
Then boil the outer skin equally soft. If it will not go through, beat it
well in a mortar and then put it through; add to it the other pulp and
the juice. Weigh it, and to each pound allow 1 lb. 2 ozs. of sifted loaf
sugar. Boil this well together, stirring it all the time, until it will retain
the mark of the scraper, when it will be ready to put into jars, which
must be secured from air as before.
XV. CHOCOLATE.
263.—Chocolate in Moulds.
It is usual now amongst confectioners to use the English
unsweetened chocolate, as it saves much time and trouble, and is
equally good. To form it into shapes you must have two kinds of
moulds, made either of thick tin or copper tinned inside; the one
sort is impressed with a device or figure, and with a narrow edge;
the other is flat or nearly so, and the same size as the previous
mould, with a shallow device in the centre. You put a piece of
prepared chocolate into the first mould, and then cover it with the
flat one; upon pressing it down the chocolate receives the form of
both devices. After it is cold it can be easily taken out. It should
have a shining appearance.
