put half a pint of vinegar; when you send it to the
table cut a slice off one end ; garnish with pickles and
parsley.
To collar a Breast of Mutton. Bone your mutton, and
rub it over with the yolk of an egg ; then grate over it a
little lemon peel and a nutmeg, with a little pepper and
salt; then chop small one tea-cupful of capers, two an-
chovies ; shred fine a handful of parsley, a few sweet
herbs ; mix them with the crumb of a penny-loaf, and
strew it over your mutton and roll it up tight; boil it two
hours, then take it up, and put it into a pickle made as
above.
To collar a Pig. Kill your pig, dress off the hair, and
draw out the entrails, and wash it clean ; take a sharp
knife, rip it open, and take out all the bones ; then rub
it all over with pepper and salt beaten fine, a few sage-
leaves and sweet herbs chopped small ; then roll up your
pig tight, and bind it with a fillet ; then fill your boiler
with soft water, one pint of vinegar, a handful of salt,
eight or ten cloves, a blade or two of mace, a tew
pepper-corns, and a bunch of sweet-herbs ; when it boils
put in your pig, and boil it till it is tender ; then take it
up, and when it is almost cold bind it over again, and
put it into an earthen pot, and pour the liquor your pig
was boiled in upon it; keep it covered, and it is fit tor
use.
To make Mock Brawn. Take a piece of the belly-part,
and the head of a young porker ; rub it with salt-petre,
and let it lie three days, then wash it clean ; split the
head and boil it; then rake out the bones, and cut if in
pieces ; then take four ox feet boiled tender, and cut it in
thin pieces ; lay them in your belly-piece, with a head
cut small; then roll it up tight with sheet-tin, that a
trencher will go in at each end ; boil it four or five
hours ; when it comes out, set it upon one end, and press
the trencher down with a large lead weight; let it stand
all night, and in the morning take it out of your tin, and
bind it with a white fillet: put it into cold salt and water.
