Walnut Candy

Crack the walnuts and shell them carefully. Pound or chop one and one-half pints of the kernels. Mix three-fourths of a teacupful of vinegar and one and one-half teaspoonfuls of gelatine dissolved in a little hot water with one and one-half pounds of brown sugar, place it over a moderate fire and cook until quite stiff. Pour a thin layer of this syrup into buttered-tins, then add the pounded or chopped walnuts, spreading them evenly, pour over the remainder of the syrup and let the candy stand until cold; then cut it into squares.
