27. Penny-royal. _The Cream, Eggs, Spice_, &c. _as above, but not so much Sugar and Salt: Take a pretty Quantity of Peny-royal and Marigold flower_, &c. _very well shred, and mingle with the Cream, Eggs_, &c. _four spoonfuls of Sack; half a Pint more of Cream, and almost a Pound of Beef-Suet chopt very small, the Gratings of a Two-penny Loaf, and stirring all well together, put it into a Bag flower'd and tie it fast. It will be boil'd within an Hour: Or may be baked in the Pan like the_ Carrot-Pudding. _The sauce is for both, a little Rose-water, less Vinegar, with Butter beaten together and poured on it sweetned with the Sugar Caster_. _Of this Plant discreetly dried, is made a most wholsom and excellent Tea_. 28. _Of_ Spinage. _Take a sufficient Quantity of_ Spinach, _stamp and strain out the Juice; put to it grated Manchet, the Yolk of as many Eggs as in the former Composition of the_ Carrot-Pudding; _some Marrow shred small, Nutmeg, Sugar, some Corinths, (if you please) a few Carroways, Rose, or Orange-flower Water (as you best like) to make it grateful. Mingle all with a little boiled Cream; and set the Dish or Pan in the Oven, with a Garnish of Puff-Paste. It will require but very moderate Baking. Thus have you Receits for_ Herb Puddings. 29. Skirret-Milk _Is made by boiling the Roots tender, and the Pulp strained out, put into Cream or new Milk boiled, with three or four Yolks of Eggs, Sugar, large Mace and other Spice_, &c. _And thus is composed any other Root-Milk_. _See_ Acetar. p. 42. 30. Tansie. _Take the Gratings or Slices of three Naples-Biscuits, put them into half a Pint of Cream; with twelve fresh Eggs, four of the Whites cast out, strain the rest, and break them with two Spoonfuls of Rose-water, a little Salt and Sugar, half a grated Nutmeg: And when ready for the Pan, put almost a Pint of the Juice of Spinach, Cleaver, Beets, Corn-Sallet, Green Corn, Violet, or Primrose tender Leaves, (for of any of these you may take your choice) with a very small Sprig of Tansie, and let it be fried so as to look green in the Dish, with a Strew of Sugar and store of the Juice of Orange: some affect to have it fryed a little brown and crisp_. 31. Tart _of_ Herbs. _An_ Herb-Tart _is made thus: Boil fresh Cream or Milk, with a little grated Bread or_ Naples-Biscuit _(which is better) to thicken it; a pretty Quantity of Chervile, Spinach, Beete (or what other Herb you please) being first par-boil'
