Lemon Butter

6 eggs
3 very large lemons (rind and juice)
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons water
butter size of walnut

Mix all together with Dove egg beater and cook until it boils. Watch
that it does not burn.

Kumquat Preserves

1 quart fruit to 1 pint sugar

Cut the Kumquats into halves, pick out seeds, cover with cold water and
bring to a boil. In the meantime have your syrup boiling--1 pint sugar
to 3 pints water.

Drain fruit and put in syrup and simmer slowly for 1 hour. Take out
fruit and continue to simmer syrup until it begins to get thick.

Put the fruit into syrup--place preserving kettle in pot of boiling
water and let them, or let the water continue boiling until syrup is
thick as you like it. Put 1/4 teaspoon fine salt in first water, as it
adds a fine flavor. Grate stem off skin deep.
