SWEET ORANGE PRESERVES Preserves are sometimes made of the halved fruit, with the rind. In this case the oranges should be halved and cored sufficiently to remove seeds and the heaviest rag. It is sometimes considered necessary to let the fruit remain in weak brine over night, in the morning draining, placing in fresh water, bringing to a boil and repeating the process. At other times the prepared fruit is at once put on in fresh water and boiled till tender, replacing the water once. When translucent add equal quantity of hot sugar
