Oranges with Transparent Jelly

Ingredients

Directions

  1. One half dozen perfect oranges. Make a hole at the stalk with a circular tin cutter, one half inch in diameter. Use a small spoon to remove all the pulp and loose pith from the in- terior ; then soak the oranges in cold water one hour, rinse again in cold water and drain on a cloth ; then set them in a deep pan, and surround with ice. Fill three with bright pink jelly, and the remainder with plain jelly. When it has become firm, wipe the oranges and cut into quarters. Serve on a glass stand.
