MINCEMEAT.
1/2 lb. raisins, 1/2 lb. sultanas, 1/2 lb. currants, 1/2
lb. castor sugar, 1/4 lb. nutter, 1/2 a nutmeg, grated
rind of 2 lemons, 1-1/2 lb. apples.
Well wash all the dried fruit in warm water, and
allow to dry thoroughly before using. Stone the
raisins, pick the sultanas, and rub the currants
in a cloth to remove stalks. Wash and core the
apples, but do not peel them. Put all the fruit and
apple through a fine food-chopper. Add the
sugar, grated lemon rind, and nutmeg. Lastly, melt
the nutter and add. Stir the mixture well, put it into
clean jars, and tie down with parchment covers
until needed for mince pies.
