Orange Marmalade Take the clearest Seville oranges you can get, cut them in two, then take out all the pulp and juice into a basin, pick all the seeds and skins out of it, boil the rinds in hard water till they are tender, change the water 3 times while they are boiling, then pound them in a Marble Mortar, add to it the juice and pulp, and put them into a preserving pan, with double its weight of loaf sugar set it over a slow fire, boil it rather more than 1/2 an hour, then pat it into jars, with Brandy papers over them, keep them in a dry place. Mrs. Garnham Barbadoes Jumbles. Beat very light the yolks of 4 eggs, and the whites of 8 eggs, with a spoonful of Rose water and dust in 1 lb of double refined sugar, then put in 3/4 lb of the best fine flour stir it lightly, grease your Tins and drop them in a shape maccaroon and bake them nicely.
