Orange Prawlines

DDV CULINARY

Take four or five Havanna oranges, and cut off the peel in quarters, or small lengths;
take off all the pith or white part of the peel, leaving only the yellow rinds,
and cut in small pieces, about an inch long, and the size of pins.
Have about a pint of clarified sugar boiling on the fire;
when it comes to the blow, put in the pieces of peel,
and let them boil until the sugar attains the small ball;
take them off, and stir them with the spatula
until the sugar grains and hangs about them;
sift off the loose sugar;
when cold, separate and keep them in a dry place.
