Sugar Wafers Recipe

Take some double-refined sugar, sifted; wet it with the juice of lemon

pretty thin, and then scald it over the fire till it candies on the

top. Then put it on paper, and rub it about thin; when almost cold, pin

up the paper across, and put the wafers in a stove to dry. Wet the

outside of the paper to take them off. You may make them red with clear

gilliflowers boiled in water, yellow with saffron in water, and green

with the juice of spinach. Put sugar in, and scald it as though white,

and, with a pin, mark your white ones before you pin them up.
