Souffle Ice-Cream with Maraschino

Mix one teacupful of maraschino with two whites of Italian meringues when they are quite cold. Add one pint of well-whipped cream, and the kernels of eighteen walnuts (the walnuts should be picked before they are quite ripe, and the skins removed from the kernels). See that they are thoroughly incorporated with the other ingredients, and then pour the preparation into a mould, which should be mixed with salt and saltpeter and packed in well-pounded ice. When frozen, turn out, and serve.
