days betwixt each time; you must take out the inmeat of the oranges very clean, for fear of mudding the syrup. 380. _To make_ JAM _of_ DAMSINS. Take damsins when they are ripe, and to two pounds of damsins take a pound of sugar, put your sugar into a pan with a jill of water, when you have boiled it put in your damsins, let them boil pretty quick, skim them all the time they are boiling, when your syrrup looks thick they are enough put them into your pots, and when they are cold cover them with a paper dip'd in brandy, tie them up close, and keep them for use. 381. _To make clear_ Cakes _of_ Gooseberries.
