Candied Lemon and Orange Peel
Lemon and orange peel can be put to excellent use.
Take out the greater portion of the white inside; throw the rinds into boiling water and simmer gently for twenty minutes. Drain, weigh, and take a pound of sugar to every pound of peel. Put a layer of sugar and a layer of fruit into the preserving kettle; place over low heat until the sugar melts. When melted, cook slowly until the rinds are transparent. Lift them out; drain them, and when nearly dry roll in granulated sugar.
Orange Sponge Cake
Take 4 eggs, 1 c. granulated sugar, 3/4 c. flour, 2 Tb. orange juice, 1/2 tsp. orange extract.
Beat the eggs with a rotary beater until they are light and lemon-colored. Add the granulated sugar gradually. Sift in flour, and continue the beating until all are mixed. Add the orange juice and extract, pour into a sponge-cake pan, and bake.
Orange Egg Nog
Take 2 oranges, 1/4 c. cream, 1/4 c. milk, 1 egg and 1 Tb. sugar.
Mix the cream, milk, egg, and sugar, beat well with an egg beater, and continue beating while adding the juice of the oranges. Serve in a glass over crushed ice.
