November 15th : A BOWL OF BISHOP A LA PRUSSE
Stick a Seville orange with cloves, and roast it for half an hour, then put two bottles of Hermitage (or Port), and one of Hock (or Sherry ), into a saucepan, sweeten with white sugar to your taste, and add a stick of cinnamon broken up; stir the sugar and spice well in the wine; when that is nearly boiling, put it into a bowl, then immerse the roast orange, and stir it about for five minutes, a delicate bitter and aromatic flavour is produced by its introduction.
