Pralines, Lemon
INGREDIENTS. -Lemons and sugar.
Pare some lemons, and cut the rinds into pieces an inch long and very narrow.
Boil some sugar nearly to a caramel, put in the lemon shreds, stirring them about well with a large wooden spoon till cold; then set them on a sieve to shake off the loose sugar, and store in tin boxes.
Pralines, Pistachio. INGREDI- ENTS.-Equal quantities of loaf sugar and pistachio nuts, rose-water for flavouring.
Dissolve the sugar in water till it can be made into a ball, add to it the nuts, blanched and chopped; take the pan from the fire, stirring them till they have taken all the sugar, then put the pan on again, and boil to a caramel. Put the pralines next on a sieve, and scatter over sufficient rose-water to flavour them.
