  1. The shorter time any cheesecakes are made, before put into the oven, the better; but more particularly almond, or lemon cheesecakes, as standing long will make them grow oily, and give them a disagreeable appearance.
  2. Particular attention must likewise be paid to the heat of the oven, which must be moderate; for if it is too hot, they will be scorched, and consequently their beauty spoiled; and, if too slack, they will look black and heavy.

CHAP. XVIII. CHEESECAKES AND CUSTARDS. SECT. I. CHEESECAKES. THE shorter time any cheesecakes are made, before put into the oven, the better; but more particu- larly almond, or lemon cheesecakes, as standing long will make them grow oily, and give them a disagreeable appearance. Particular attention must likewise be paid to the heat of the oven, which must be moderate; for if it is too hot, they will be scorched, and consequently their beauty spoiled; and, if too slack, they will look black and heavy.
