Original Text
You must take a quart of cream and half an ounce of isinglass, beat it fine, and stir it into the cream. Let it boil softly over a slow fire a quarter of an hour, keep it stirring all the time; then take it off the fire, sweeten it to your palate, and put in a spoonful of rose water and a spoonful of orange-flower water, strain it, and pour it into a glass or bason, or just what you please, and when it is cold, turn it out. It makes a fine side-dish. You may eat it with cream, wine, or what you please. Lay round it baked pears. It both looks very pretty, and eats fine.
