Cut the liver into slices of a good and equal shape. Dip them in flour
and fry brown. Place on a hot dish and keep before the fire while you
prepare the gravy. Mince the herbs fine and put into the frying-pan
with a little more butter; add the other ingredients with one
teaspoonful flour. Simmer gently until the herbs are done, and pour
over the liver.--_Mrs. A. M. D._
BEWITCHED LIVER.
3 pounds calf's liver, chopped fine.
¼ pound salt pork.
1 cup grated bread crumbs.
2 eggs well beaten.
2 teaspoonfuls salt.
2 teaspoonfuls black pepper.
½ teaspoonful red pepper.
Mix all well together, and put into a tin mould; set it in a pot of
cold water and let it boil two hours. Then set the mould in a cool
oven to dry off a little; when thoroughly cold turn it out.--_Mrs. J.
H._
SIMPLE WAY OF COOKING LIVER.
Wash calf's liver and heart thoroughly; chop them fine as possible,
after they have been boiled till very tender; then add pepper and
salt, and one tablespoonful flour, straining into it a little of the
water.--_Mrs. J. P. H._
CALF'S BRAINS.
Beat up the brains with a little lemon-peel cut fine, a little nutmeg
grated, a little mace beaten, thyme and parsley.
Shred fine the yolk of an egg, and dredge with flour. Fry in little
flat cakes and lay on top of the baked head.
If for soup, mix in one-half the brains with the soup while the soup
is boiling, and make the other in cakes and lay together with
forcemeat balls in the soup.--_Mrs. R._
CALF'S HEAD.
Split the head, take out the brains, boil till it will fall to pieces.
Cut it up fine and season with pepper, salt and nutmeg to the taste;
add one-quarter pound of butter, wineglassful wine, and the brains,
which are not to be boiled with the head. Put in a dish and bake with
or without paste.--_Mrs. J. D._
BAKED CALF'S HEAD.
Boil until tender, then cut into pieces and put into a deep dish with
pepper, salt, a few cloves, mace, a little thyme.
A spoonful butter with flour, well mixed through the meat, a layer of
bread crumbs on top. Then add a wineglass of wine and fill up the dish
with the water the head was boiled in, and bake three-quarters of an
hour. Garnish with forcemeat balls and rings of hard-boiled eggs, just
before sending to the table.--_Miss N._
VEAL DAUBE.
After the head of a calf is skinned and the feet prepared by taking
off the hoofs, scraping, etc., throw them into cold water for
twenty-four hours. Put them in a boiler of cold water, and simmer
until the flesh leaves the bones and there is but little water left.
