Almonds, Sugared

Boil together a syrup made of one pound of sugar and one pint of water. Blanch one pound of sweet almonds, and put them in; let them boil for some minutes. Take them out and drain them; let the syrup boil until thick, then return the almonds, and take them out when coated with sugar, which will be in a minute or two. They should be thoroughly dried, and kept in a warm place. Time to boil ten minutes.
