ICED CURRANTS, for Dessert

Ingredients

• 1/4 pint water
• the whites of 2 eggs
• currants, pounded sugar

Instructions

1. Select very fine bunches of red or white currants, and well beat the whites of the eggs.
2. Mix these with the water;
3. then take the currants, a bunch at a time, and dip them in;
4. let them drain for a minute or two, and roll them in very fine pounded sugar.
5. Lay them to dry on paper, when the sugar will crystallize round each currant, and have a very pretty effect.
6. All fresh fruit may be prepared in the same manner; and a mixture of various fruits iced in this manner, and arranged on one dish, looks very well for a summer dessert.
