Make ready the Pig for the Spit, then spit it and lay it down to the
fire, and when you can take off the Skin, take it from the fire and flay
it, then put such a Pudding as you love into the Belly of it, then sew
it up, and stick it with Thyme and Limon Pill, and lay it down again, and
rost it and bast it with Butter, and set a Dish under it to catch the
Gravie, into which put a little sliced Nutmeg, and a little Vinegar, and
a little Limon and some Butter; heat them together: when your Pig is
enough, bread it, but first froth it up with Butter and a little Salt,
then serve it in with this Sauce to the Table with the Head on.
237. _To fry Artichokes._
Take the bottoms of Artichokes tenderly boiled, and dip them in beaten
Eggs and a little Salt, and fry them with a little Mace shred among the
Eggs; then take Verjuice, Butter and Sugar, and the Juice of an Orange,
Dish your Artichokes, and lay on Marrow fried in Eggs to keep it whole,
then lay your Sauce, or rather pour it on, and serve them in.
238. _To make Toasts of Veal._
Take a rosted Kidney of Veal, cold and minced small, put to it grated
bread, Nutmeg, Currans, Sugar and Salt, with some Almonds blanched and
beaten with Rosewater, mingle all these together with beaten Eggs and a
little Cream, then cut thin slices of white Bread, and lay this Compound
between two of them, and so fry them, and strew Sugar on them, and serve
them in.
239. _To make good Pancakes._
Take twenty Eggs with half the Whites, and beat them well and mix them
with fine flower and beaten Spice, a little Salt, Sack, Ale, and a
little Yeste, do not make your Batter too thin, then beat it well, and
let it stand a little while to rise, then fry them with sweet Lard or
with Butter, and serve them in with the Juice of Orange and Sugar.
240. _To fry Veal._
Cut part of a Leg of Veal into thin slices, and hack them with the back
of a Knife, then season them with beaten Spice and Salt, and lard them
well with Hogs Lard, then chop some sweet herbs, and beat some Eggs and
mix together and dip them therein, and fry them in Butter, then stew
them with a little white Wine and some Anchovies a little while, then
put in some Butter, and shake them well, and serve them in with sliced
Limon over them.
241. _To make good Paste._
Take to a peck of fine flower three pound of butter, and three Eggs, and
a little cold Cream, and work it well together, but do not break your
Butter too small, and it will be very fine Crust, either to bake meat
in, or fruit, or what else you please.
It is also a very fine Dumplin, if you make it into good big Rolls, and
boil them and butter them, or roul some of it out thin, and put a great
Apple therein, and boil and butter them, with Rosewater, Butter and
Sugar.
242. _To make good Paste to raise._
