I am utterly against those confused Olios into which +men put almost all kinds of meats and Roots, and especially against +putting of Oyle, for it corrupts the Broath, instead of adding goodnesse +to it. To do well, the Broth is rather to be drunk out of a Porringer +then to be eaten with a spoon, though you add some smal slices of bread +to it, you wil like it the worse. The Sauce for thy meat must be as much +fine Sugar beaten smal to powder, with a little Mustard, as can be made +to drink the Sugar up, and you wil find it to be excellent, but if you +make it not faithfully and justly according to this prescript, but shall +neither put Mace, or Rosemary, or Tyme to the Herbs as the manner is of +some, it will prove very much the worse. + + +_To make Metheglin._ + +Take all sorts of Herbs that are good and wholesome, as Balme, Mint, +Fennell, Rosemary, Angelica, wilde Tyme, Isop, Burnet, Egrimony, and +such other as you think fit; some Field Herbs, but you must not put in +too many, but especially Rosemary or any strong Hearb, lesse then halfe +a handfull will serve of every sort, you must boyle your Herbs and +straine them, and let the Liquor stand till to Morrow and settle them, +take off the clearest Liquor, two Gallons and a halfe to one Gallon of +Honey, and that proportion as much as you will make, and let it boyle an +houre, then set it a cooling as you doe Beere, when it is cold take some +very good Ale Barme, and put into the bottome of the Tubb a little and a +little as they doe Beere, keeping backe the thicke setling, that lyeth +in the bottome of the Vessell that it is cooled in, and when it is all +put together, cover it with a Cloth, and let it worke very neere three +dayes, and when you mean to put it up, skim off all the Barme clean, put +it up into the Vessell, but you must not stop your Vessell very close in +three or four dayes, but let it have all the vent, for it will worke, +and when it is close stopped, you must looke very often to it, and have +a peg in the top to give it vent; when you heare it make a noyse, as it +will do, or else it will breake the Vessell; sometime I make a Bag and +put in good store of Ginger sliced, some Cloves and Cinnamon, and boyl +it in, and other times I put it into the Barrel and never boyle it, it +is both good, but Nutmeg and Mace do not well to my Tast. + + +_To make a Sallet of Smelts._ + +Take halfe a hundred of Smelts, the biggest you can get, draw them and +cut off their Heads, put them into a Pipkin with a Pint of White wine, +and a Pint of White wine Vinegar, an Onion shred a couple of Lemons, a +Race of Ginger, three or foure blades of Mace, a Nutmeg sliced, whole +Pepper, a little Salt, cover them, and let them stand twenty foure +houres; if you will keep them three or four dayes, let not your Pickle +be to strong of the Vinegar, when you will serve them, take them out one +by one, scrape and open them as you do Anchoves, but throw away the +bones, lay them close one by one, round a Silver dish, you must have the +very utmost rind of a Lemon or Orange so small as grated bread and the +Parsley, then mix your Lemon Pill, Orange and Parsley together with a +little fine beaten Pepper, and strew this upon the dish of Smelts with +the meat of a Lemon minced very small, also then power on excellent +Sallet Oile, and wring in the juyce of two Lemons, but be sure none of +the Lemon-seed be left in the Sallet, so serve it. + +_To Roast a Fillet of Veal._ + +Take a Fillet of Beefe which is the tenderest part of the Beast, and +lieth only in the inward part of the Surloyne next to the Chine, cut it +as big as you can, then broach it on a broach not too big, and be +carefull you broach it not thorow the best of the meat, roast it +leasurely and baste it with sweet butter. Set a Dish under it to save +the Gravy while the Beefe is roasting, prepare the Sauce for it, chop +good store of Parsley with a few sweet Herbs shred small, and the yolks +of three or foure Eggs, and mince among them the pill of an Orange, and +a little Onyon, then boyle this mixture, putting into it sweet butter, +Vinegar, and Gravy, a spoonfull of strong broth, when it is well boyled, +put it into your beef, and serve it very warm, sometimes a little grosse +Pepper or Ginger into your sauce, or a pill of an Orange or Lemon. + + +_To make a Sallet of a cold Hen or a Capon._ + +Take the breast of a hen or Capon, and slice it as thin as you can in +steaks, put therein Vinegar, and a little Sugar as you thinke fit, then +take six Anchoves, and a handfull of Capers, a little long, grosse or a +carrigon, and mince them together, but not too small, strew them on the +Sallet, Garnish it with Lemons, Oranges or barberies, so serve it up +with a little salt. + + +_To stew Mushrums._ + +Take them fresh gathered and cut off the hard end of the stalk, & as you +Pil them throw them into a Dish of white Wine, after they have lain half +an houre or thereupon draine them from the wine, and put them between +two silver Dishes, then set them on a soft fire without any liquor, and +when they have so stewed a while, pour away the liquor that comes from +them which will be very black, then put your Mushrums into another clean +Dish with a sprig or two of Tyme, an Onion whole, four or five cornes of +whole Pepper, two or three Cloves, a bit of an Orange, a little Salt, a +bit of sweet butter, and some pure gravy of Mutton, cover them, and set +them on a gentle fire, so let them stew softly till they be enough and +very tender, when you dish them blow off all the fat from them, and take +out the Time, spice, and Orange, then wring in the juyce of a Lemon, and +grate a little Nutmeg among the Mushrums, tosse them two or three times;

I am utterly against those confused Olios into which +men put almost all kinds of meats and Roots, and especially against +putting of Oyle, for it corrupts the Broath, instead of adding goodnesse +to it. To do well, the Broth is rather to be drunk out of a Porringer +then to be eaten with a spoon, though you add some smal slices of bread +to it, you wil like it the worse. The Sauce for thy meat must be as much +fine Sugar beaten smal to powder, with a little Mustard, as can be made +to drink the Sugar up, and you wil find it to be excellent, but if you +make it not faithfully and justly according to this prescript, but shall +neither put Mace, or Rosemary, or Tyme to the Herbs as the manner is of +some, it will prove very much the worse. + + +_To make Metheglin._ + +Take all sorts of Herbs that are good and wholesome, as Balme, Mint, +Fennell, Rosemary, Angelica, wilde Tyme, Isop, Burnet, Egrimony, and +such other as you think fit; some Field Herbs, but you must not put in +too many, but especially Rosemary or any strong Hearb, lesse then halfe +a handfull will serve of every sort, you must boyle your Herbs and +straine them, and let the Liquor stand till to Morrow and settle them, +take off the clearest Liquor, two Gallons and a halfe to one Gallon of +Honey, and that proportion as much as you will make, and let it boyle an +houre, then set it a cooling as you doe Beere, when it is cold take some +very good Ale Barme, and put into the bottome of the Tubb a little and a +little as they doe Beere, keeping backe the thicke setling, that lyeth +in the bottome of the Vessell that it is cooled in, and when it is all +put together, cover it with a Cloth, and let it worke very neere three +dayes, and when you mean to put it up, skim off all the Barme clean, put +it up into the Vessell, but you must not stop your Vessell very close in +three or four dayes, but let it have all the vent, for it will worke, +and when it is close stopped, you must looke very often to it, and have +a peg in the top to give it vent; when you heare it make a noyse, as it +will do, or else it will breake the Vessell; sometime I make a Bag and +put in good store of Ginger sliced, some Cloves and Cinnamon, and boyl +it in, and other times I put it into the Barrel and never boyle it, it +is both good, but Nutmeg and Mace do not well to my Tast. + + +_To make a Sallet of Smelts._ + +Take halfe a hundred of Smelts, the biggest you can get, draw them and +cut off their Heads, put them into a Pipkin with a Pint of White wine, +and a Pint of White wine Vinegar, an Onion shred a couple of Lemons, a +Race of Ginger, three or foure blades of Mace, a Nutmeg sliced, whole +Pepper, a little Salt, cover them, and let them stand twenty foure +houres; if you will keep them three or four dayes, let not your Pickle +be to strong of the Vinegar, when you will serve them, take them out one +by one, scrape and open them as you do Anchoves, but throw away the +bones, lay them close one by one, round a Silver dish, you must have the +very utmost rind of a Lemon or Orange so small as grated bread and the +Parsley, then mix your Lemon Pill, Orange and Parsley together with a +little fine beaten Pepper, and strew this upon the dish of Smelts with +the meat of a Lemon minced very small, also then power on excellent +Sallet Oile, and wring in the juyce of two Lemons, but be sure none of +the Lemon-seed be left in the Sallet, so serve it. + +_To Roast a Fillet of Veal._ + +Take a Fillet of Beefe which is the tenderest part of the Beast, and +lieth only in the inward part of the Surloyne next to the Chine, cut it +as big as you can, then broach it on a broach not too big, and be +carefull you broach it not thorow the best of the meat, roast it +leasurely and baste it with sweet butter. Set a Dish under it to save +the Gravy while the Beefe is roasting, prepare the Sauce for it, chop +good store of Parsley with a few sweet Herbs shred small, and the yolks +of three or foure Eggs, and mince among them the pill of an Orange, and +a little Onyon, then boyle this mixture, putting into it sweet butter, +Vinegar, and Gravy, a spoonfull of strong broth, when it is well boyled, +put it into your beef, and serve it very warm, sometimes a little grosse +Pepper or Ginger into your sauce, or a pill of an Orange or Lemon. + + +_To make a Sallet of a cold Hen or a Capon._ + +Take the breast of a hen or Capon, and slice it as thin as you can in +steaks, put therein Vinegar, and a little Sugar as you thinke fit, then +take six Anchoves, and a handfull of Capers, a little long, grosse or a +carrigon, and mince them together, but not too small, strew them on the +Sallet, Garnish it with Lemons, Oranges or barberies, so serve it up +with a little salt. + + +_To stew Mushrums._ + +Take them fresh gathered and cut off the hard end of the stalk, & as you +Pil them throw them into a Dish of white Wine, after they have lain half +an houre or thereupon draine them from the wine, and put them between +two silver Dishes, then set them on a soft fire without any liquor, and +when they have so stewed a while, pour away the liquor that comes from +them which will be very black, then put your Mushrums into another clean +Dish with a sprig or two of Tyme, an Onion whole, four or five cornes of +whole Pepper, two or three Cloves, a bit of an Orange, a little Salt, a +bit of sweet butter, and some pure gravy of Mutton, cover them, and set +them on a gentle fire, so let them stew softly till they be enough and +very tender, when you dish them blow off all the fat from them, and take +out the Time, spice, and Orange, then wring in the juyce of a Lemon, and +grate a little Nutmeg among the Mushrums, tosse them two or three times;

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + https://www.gutenberg.org/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + diff --git a/old/10520.zip b/old/10520.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..23f417b --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10520.zip |
