- 164), on a wire, to get all the syrup from them ;
- when they are well drained, put some lump sugar broken small into a preserving pan, and to two pounds of sugar, put three quarters of a pint of water, and let it boil until it will blow through the skimmer in bubbles;
- then put in your chips, press them down under the sugar and let them boil a little, until the syrup will again blow in bubbles through the skimmer, as the syrup that will hang about the chips weakens it ;
- then take them off the fire, and with the back part of a wooden spoon, rub the sugar against the sides of the pan, and it will turn white;
- as it thickens mix it all together with the chips, then with two forks take out the chips and lay them on a wire to drain ;
- when cold, take them off and put them in drawers.
