JELLY BREAD (Invalid Cookery)

Remove the crust from a penny roll. Cut the crumb into thin slices, and toast these to a bright brown on each side. Put them into a saucepan with a quart of cold spring water, and simmer gently until the liquid will jelly, which point may be known by putting a little on one side to cool. Strain through muslin, sweeten, and flavour with wine and lemon-juice, if permitted. Time, an hour and a half to two hours. Probable cost, 2d., exclusive of the wine. Sufficient for one person.
