Almond and Orange Ice Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Almond and Orange Ice Recipe, first blanch and pound 1 ounce of sweet almonds with a little orange-flower water to prevent them oiling. Put them into a saucepan with 1 pint of cream and the yolks of 3 eggs, well beaten. Stir constantly till the egg thickens; then pour it out, let it cool, put it into the freezing-pot, and work the handle until it is sufficiently frozen. Put half a pound of loaf sugar and a cupful of water into an enamelled saucepan, with the white of an egg beaten to a stiff froth, and the thin rind of an orange. Put it on the fire and bring it to a syrup, then add to it three-quarters of a pint of orange-juice. Strain this and freeze it like the almond cream. Put a piece of cardboard into the mould, dividing it in two. Place the almond ice on one side and the orange ice on the other. Remove the cardboard, close the mould, and let it remain in the ice until wanted. Time, half an hour to freeze. Sufficient for a quart of ice.
