8. ORANGE PRESERVES.
PORTUCAL TCHEVIRMEH.
Ingredients:
Oranges ...........................................3.
Sugar ..................................1 1/2 pounds.
Plain Water ..................................1 pint.
Method:
Shave fine the skins of the oranges and soak for two hours in the juice pressed
out of the same skinned oranges. This done, strain well, and hold the juice
ready in a deep vessel. Then boil the sugar in the water over a moderate fire
until it gets cream thick. This sugar syrup should be poured in the strained
orange juice in the vessel (not the juice into the boiling sugar syrup, as in
this case the orange flavor may totally get destroyed), and stir well. Cool this
preserve before putting in proper jars.
Note.--Tchevirmeh may be prepared from all kinds of fruit with good flavor and
wholesome juice, in like manner as described above.
