Ingredients for Mince-meat No. 1
  • 1 pound of raisins
  • 1 pound of currants
  • 1¼ pounds of apples
  • ¼ pound each of candied citron, orange and lemon
  • 1 pound of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • ½ grated nutmeg
  • ½ saltspoon of powdered cloves
  • 2 sherry glasses of brandy

Instructions
  1. Pick and wash the currants, stone the raisins.
  2. Peel and slice the apples; they must be weighed after they are prepared.
  3. Shred very finely the citron, orange and lemon.
  4. Put them all into a large bowl, and mix well, then chop them either on a chopping-board or in a chopping bowl.
  5. When the fruit has been sufficiently chopped, return it to the large bowl, and mix in the sugar and spices.
  6. Put the mince-meat in a jar and pour the brandy over it.
  7. When it is used it should be well mixed, and until it is required must be kept carefully covered.
  8. A dessertspoon of mince-meat should be put into a three-inch pie; and as there is no suet in the mince-meat, a piece of butter, the size of a hazel nut, must be placed in the middle of the mince-meat in each pie.
