To Clarify Syrup For Jellies

Ingredients

To every quart of water allow

• 2 pounds of loaf sugar
• white of 1 egg

Instructions

Put the sugar and water into a stewpan; set it on the fire, and, when the sugar is dissolved, add the white of the egg, whipped up with a little water. Whisk the whole well together, and simmer very gently until it has thrown up all the scum. Take this off as it rises, strain the syrup through a fine sieve or cloth into a basin, and keep it for use.
