Pick the currants from the stem, weigh them, and to each pound of currants take 1½ pound of sugar, wet it with a little vinegar. To 6 or 8 pounds of currants take 6 teaspoonsful of ground cloves and the same of cinnamon. Dissolve sugar and vinegar, put in the currants and spice, and let them boil half an hour, or until it is quite stiff when cooled. Put in jelly glasses. When cold run a layer of melted paraffine over the top, let it stand until perfectly cold, then put on covers.
