Take four Dozen of large Apricocks, stone and pare them, and cover them with three Pound of fine beaten Sugar, strewing some on as you pare them; let them stand, at least, six or seven Hours, then boil them on a slow Fire 'till they are clear and tender; if some of them are clear before the rest, take them out, and put them in again when the rest are ready. Let them stand, with a Paper close to them, 'till the next Day; then make Codling-Jelly very strong: Take two Pints of Jelly, two Pound of Sugar, boil it 'till it jellies; and whilst it is boiling, make your Apricocks scalding hot, and put the Jelly to your Apricocks, and boil them together, but not too fast. When the Apricocks rise in the Jelly, and they jelly very well, put them into Pots or Glasses, with Papers close to them. _To make APRICOCK CLEAR-CAKES._ Take about three Dozen of Apricocks, pare them, and put thereto a Pound of fine Sugar, and boil them to Pieces; then put to them two Quarts of Codling-Jelly, boil them together very fast for a Quarter of an Hour; run it thro' a Jelly-bag, and to a Pint of Jelly put a Pound and half of Sugar, sifted thro' a Hair Sieve; while the Jelly boils, shake in your Sugar, and let it scald 'till the Sugar is melted; then put it thro' a thin Strainer, in a broad earthen Pan; fill it in Pots, and dry it as other Clear-Cakes. If you would have some with Pieces in them, cut some of your dry'd Quarters small; and when the Strainer has taken off the Scum, take some of the Jelly in a Pan, put in the Pieces, make it scalding hot again, and fill it out. _To make APRICOCK-PASTE._ Take two Pound of Apricocks par'd, and a Pound of Sugar fine beaten, let them lye in the Sugar 'till it is melted; then boil it well and mash it very small; put to it two Pints of Codling-Jelly; let it boil together; and to a Pound of it put a Pound and a Quarter of sifted Sugar; let your Paste boil before you put your Sugar to it, then let it scald 'till the Sugar is melted; fill it in Pots, and dry it in the Stove, turning it as other Paste. _To make APPLE-JELLY for all Sorts of SWEET-MEATS._ Let your Water boil in the Pan you make it in; and when the Apples are par'd and quarter'd, put them into the boiling Water; let there be no more Water than just to cover them, and let it boil as fast as possible; when the Apples are all to Pieces, put in about a Quart of Water more; let it boil at least half an Hour; and then run it thro' a Jelly-bag: In the _Summer_, Codlings are best; in _September_, Golden Runnets and _Winter_ Pippins. _To make APRICOCK-JAM._ Take two Pound of Apricocks par'd, and a Pint of Codling-Jelly, boil them very fast together 'till the Jelly is almost wasted; then put to it a Pound and half of fine Sugar, and boil it very fast 'till it jellies; put it into Pots or Glasses. You may make fresh Clear-Cakes with this, and Pippin-Jelly, in the _Winter_. _To preserve GREEN JENNITINS._
