Recipes from Nostradamus Treatise on Cosmetics and Conserves Love Jam “Take three mandrake apples and go and cull them as soon as you see the sun rising, and wrap them in verbena leaves and the root of the mullein herb, and leave them alone until the following morning. Then take the weight of six grains of magnetite from the point where it repels the iron… and pulverise it on the marble as finely as possible, sprinkling it a little with the juice of the mandrake apple…” Next, “Take the blood of seven male sparrows, bled via the left wing; of ambergris the weight of 57 barley seeds; seven grains of musk; of the core of the best cinnamon that can be found the weight of 377 barley seeds; of cloves and fine lignum aloes the weight of three deniers [‘pence’]; of the arms of an octopus one eyelet from each, preserved and prepared in honey; of mace the weight of 21 grains; of sweet flag the weight of 500 grains; of the root of Lyris Illyrica or Sclavonia [‘Illyrian or Slavonian Lyre’] the weight of 700 grains; of the root of Apii Risus [‘Bee’s Laughter’] 31 grains; of Cretan wine double the weight of the whole; of the finest sugar the weight of 700 grains, which is just a little more than an ounce.” Mix all this together and pulverise it thoroughly in a marble mortar with a wooden pestle. Then boil it on a fire till it becomes like syrup (“take care above all that it is not a willow fire”). Then strain. Store in a gold or silver vessel. Cherry Jam HOW TO PRESERVE BITTER CHERRIES in the most delectable and exquisite manner so that, although the process may have been undertaken the previous year, they yet have the appearance of being prepared the very same day. Take about three pounds of the most beautiful and ripest bitter cherries you can obtain (but if they are not fresh, boil them until nothing remains after straining except the stones and skins). If you think that the stalks are too long, shorten them. Then take a pound and a half of sugar and dissolve it in three or four pounds of another bitter cherry brew or juice, making sure that you add the sugar immediately the juice has been extracted. Then put it over the fire and dissolve it only with the said juice. Let it boil as quickly as possible and remove any scum during the boiling. When you have done this to the best of your ability and see that the sugar has turned red and is thoroughly refined and purified, do not remove it from the fire but let it go on boiling and drop the bitter cherries into it. Stir them gently but continuously with a spatula until they are thoroughly cooked and foaming. Still do not take them off the fire until they are cooked right through, so that you do not have to put them on to the fire again. When you put a drop on a pewter plate and see that it does not run, then it is properly boiled, so pour it while still warm into small containers holding three or four ounces. You will then have beautiful red, whole bitter cherries with a 1nost delectable taste which will keep for a long while. I, however, have been to many and varied places in the world and have learned and experienced this and that and how this one does a thing one way and another a different way, so that I should run out of paper were I to attempt to write everything down. I believe, however, that France and Italy excel in this matter, though from what I have seen they go about it in an odd way. So, I have seen it made in Toulouse, Bordeaux and Rochelle and recently, while we are on the subject, also in Genoa, Languedoc, the whole of the Dauphine and in the area round about Lyons, but I have never come across more beautiful and better ones than these. In Toulouse they boil them five or six times and several times in Bordeaux. Eventually, though, when they are five or six months old, some go rotten and bad and useless and others shrivel. If you want to preserve them properly you must use nothing except the juice of bitter cherries, as it increases their goodness, size and taste. For if a sick person takes just a single one, he will consider it as a balsam or other strengthening substance. After a lapse of a year, they are as good as they were on the first day.
