Memorandum - Mr Villion
a Genoese merchant, about 30 years
ago used to mention a
mode they had to his
knowledge in Italy of
preserving pea fruits,
and particularly peaches
in wax bees wax. For this purpose
it should serve
not to be necessary to
fill up with wax the
vessel in which they
are kept; but sufficient
to coat them over
so it be perfectly, for
example by dripping
into the way when melted.
The only way in
which the operation
could contribute to the
effect must be the
exclusion of the preservandum
from the air:
Quere from the oxygene,
or the nitrogen,
or both?
---page break---
If would not
suffice to keep fruit
from mouldiness, the
larger sorts, such as
peaches, nectarines and
large plums, might be
coated with bees wax.
the small ones such as
currants, mulberries
strawberries &c withkept in
water: putting some
ingredient into the water
suppose an acid lemon
juice and sugar.- to
preserve them from insipidity.
Fi.31.
Upon looking over the
printed list of Fish
in season it seems pretty
clear that in the first instance
at least, it would
not be worth while to
include fish in the system
of experiments in
any other view than the
merely preserving them
in an entable state
Reasons. 32
1. Though their flavour should
remain unimpaired
this can scarcely be
expected with regard to
their firmness: a property
which seems to depend on
life..
