Barberries, to Preserve

To every two pounds of fruit take four and a half pounds of powdered loaf sugar, throw some of it over the barberries to be preserved, and with the remainder make a strong syrup in the proportion of a pint of water to a pound of sugar. Put the barberries into it, and make them boil as quickly as possible, that they may not lose colour; then fill the jars for use. Probable cost, 4d. to 5d. per pint.
