Mince Meat A very simple way of making mincemeat is to finely chop one pound of suet, one pound of muscatel raisins (which are better stoned at home than bought ready done), one pound of currants, one pound of apples, one pound of sultanas, and a pound of Demerara sugar. Grate the rinds of two lemons and an orange, and add the juice of both the lemons and the orange grated ; nutmeg and allspice. Stir thoroughly, adding to it rum and brandy
