Orange Water Ice or with Gelatine

Glace a l'Eau a l'Orange et a la Gelatine

Take one quart of syrup at thirty-two degrees, five gills of orange juice, the peel of a large orange and one gill of lemon juice. Infuse for two hours, bring it to eighteen or twenty degrees of the syrup gauge, and color with a little carmine; strain through a silk sieve and freeze.

Another Way.-Six pounds of sugar, four quarts of water, thirty oranges, using the peel of sixteen, and the juice of twelve lemons. Infuse for two hours, bring to twenty degrees, strain through a silk sieve and freeze. This will make about eight quarts.

With Gelatine.-Have one quart of water, one pound of sugar, the peel and juice of two oranges, the juice of four lemons, a sheet of gelatine weighing a quarter of an ounce, previously dissolved in a little water, then strained through a fine sieve. The ice may be flavored with extract of orange and the lemon replaced by citric acid.
