Charlotte Russe. (Mrs. Storys)
A pint & a half of thick sweet cream, three
eggs, the whites & yolks beaten separately, half an
ounce of isinglass, sugar to your taste, flavored
with vanilla bean. Powder the sugar & put it
into the cream to dissolve, Put the isinglass, and
the vanilla in a cup of milk and dissolve them
by the fire-then strain the milk & put all together
& pump the mixture with a syllabub pump, or
beat it up with a spoon; skim off the froth as it
rises and put it into the shell of of sponge cake,-
set it in a cool place; make it only a few hours
before it is wanted for the table. This quantity
is sufficient for one good sized mould.

Cranberry Jelly
One large pint of Cranberries, one pint of sugar
and half a pint of water, boil it for three quarters
of an hour without stirring, then with a spoon
dab off the jelly-the remainder makes good
cranberry sauce-

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
