Name: Chilled Mandarine Slices Scented with Orange-Flower Water
Ingredients: Stephen Ceideburg; 6 lg Mandarines; 2 tb Orange flower water; Icing sugar

It is one heart-quieting consideration in all the afflictions that befall us, that God has a special hand in them: “The Almighty hath afflicted me.” Instruments can no more stir till God gives them a commission, than the axe can cut of itself without a hand. Job eyed God in his affliction: therefore, as Augustine observes, he does not say, “The Lord gave, and the devil took away,” but “The Lord hath taken away.”

INSTRUCTIONS

This fruit salad couldn't be simpler or more delicious after a rich main
course. Orange-flower water can be bought in Greek and Lebanese food
stores.
Zest 2 large or 4 small mandarines, peel 4 large or 8 small without
segmenting them and remove as much pith from the fruit as possible. Slice
into rounds, removing the pips, and overlap the slices in a serving dish,
conserving any juice. sprinkle with the zest and about 2 tablespoons
orange-flower water, dust with icing sugar, cover with cling film and leave
to macerate in the refrig- erator for a couple of hours. Taste the juices
and adjust if necessary with sugar or a little lemon juice. Chill again and
serve.
