Barley Sugar

Dissolve 1 1/2 pounds of loaf sugar in 1/2 pint of water, and the white of 1 egg. Boil. When it is boiled sufficiently to snap in cold water, add 1 teacupful of strained lemon juice. Boil quickly until it is candied, then pour on a buttered slab, or dripping-pan. When it thickens, cut in strips and twist each one.
