Currant-water Ice
Press the juice from ripe currants, strain it clear; to one pint of juice put a pound of loaf sugar, put to it a pint of water, and freeze as directed for cream.
Hasty Cream.- Take a gallon of milk warm from the cow, set it over the fire; when it begins to rise, take it off, and set it by; skim off all the cream, and put it on a plate, then set the stew-pan over the fire again; as soon as it is ready to boil, take it off, and skim again repeat the skimming until no more cream rises. The milk must not boil.
