1 tablespoonful Jam--1d.
1/2 pint Water
1 oz. Sugar
1 teaspoonful Cornflour

Put the water, jam, lemon juice, and sugar into a small
saucepan and boil it for five minutes. Mix the cornflour with a little
cold water and pour it in; stir till it boils up. Strain the jam out,
and it is ready to serve; a few drops of cochineal improve the colour.
