This recipe was extracted from Modern cookery, in all its branches (1884) by Eliza Acton, page 523. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

almond-cream as it is called, will be found to answer excellently. To prepare it, blanch and pound the almonds by the directions of page 542, and then pour very gradually to them boiling water in the proportion directed below ; turn them into a strong cloth or tammy, and wring it from them with powerful pressure, to extract as much as possible of it from them again. The fruit custards of page 482, and the meringues of fruit of page 485, are perfectly suited to the tables of Jewish families; and sweet or savoury croustades or fried patties may be supplied to them from the receipts in the present work, by substituting clarified marrow (see page 388) for the butter used for them in general cookery. The reader will easily discover in addition, numerous dishes dis- tributed through this volume which may be served to them without departing from their peculiar usages. Almond-cream : (for puddings, &c.) almonds, 4 oz. ; water, 1 pint
