3/4 cup water
6 cloves
1/2 cup celery
1/4 cup vinegar
1 tbs. of parsley
1/2 tsp. red pepper
1 tbs. granulated gelatin soaked in 1/4 cup cold water
One slice of onion may be added if there is nothing to
contra-indicate it, but care must be taken in adding onion, as it is
apt to disagree with many people. Boil all of the ingredients together
(except the gelatin) for 20 minutes, press through a sieve, then
through a cloth, return to the stove and allow to boil up; add the
gelatin and boil 5 minutes; strain into wet molds.
