Then with a skimmer take out the Cherries and put them in a basin ; take out a little of the liquid and add a little lemon-zest (grated peel) and 2 handfuls of powdered caster sugar. Boil this up quickly to reduce it to the required consistency, put in the Cherries, and let it bubble up once more only ; then pour them out into a deep dish. Cut eight or ten slices of household bread about Jin. in thickness, cut them into an oval shape with a biscuit-cutter, and with the point of a knife make an incision all round near the edge.
