THE
OUTER SKIN [2].
[1] _Cyperis_, _--os_, _--um_, _cypirus_, variants for a
sort of rush; probably "Cyprian Grass."
[2] Dann. Dumplings; but this formula appears to deal
with boneless pork chops, pork roulades or "_filets
mignons_."
[263] PORK CUTLETS, HUNTER STYLE
_OFFELLAE APRUGNEO _[1]_ MORE_
IN THE SAME MANNER YOU CAN MAKE TIDBITS OF SOW'S BELLY [2] PORK CHOPS
PREPARED IN A MANNER TO RESEMBLE WILD BOAR ARE [3] PICKLED IN OIL AND
BROTH AND PLACED IN SPICES. WHEN THE CUTLETS ARE DONE [marinated] THE
PICKLE IS PLACED ON THE FIRE AND BOILED; THE CUTLETS ARE PUT BACK INTO
THIS GRAVY AND ARE FINISHED WITH CRUSHED PEPPER, SPICES, HONEY, BROTH,
AND ROUX. WHEN THIS IS DONE SERVE THE CUTLETS WITHOUT THE BROTH AND
OIL, SPRINKLED WITH PEPPER.
[1] G.-V. _Aprugineo_; List. _Offellae Aprugneae_, i.e.
wild boar chops or cutlets. Vat. Ms. _aprogneo more_;
Tor. _pro genuino more_; Tac. _aprogeneo_--from
_aprugnus_, wild boar.
Mutton today is prepared in a similar way, marinated
with spices, etc., to resemble venison, and is called
_Mouton a la Chasseur_, hunter style.
[2] This sentence, probably belonging to the preceding
formula, carried over by Torinus.
[3] This sentence only in Torinus.
[264] TIDBITS ANOTHER WAY
_ALITER OFFELLAE_
THE BALLS OR CUTLETS ARE [1] PROPERLY FRIED IN THE PAN, NEARLY DONE.
[Next prepare the following] ONE WHOLE [2] GLASS BROTH, A GLASS OF
WATER, A GLASS OF VINEGAR AND A GLASS OF OIL, PROPERLY MIXED; PUT THIS
IN AN EARTHEN BAKING DISH [immerse meat pieces] FINISH ON THE FIRE AND
SERVE.
[1] Tor.
[2] Tor. _Summi_; List. _sumis_, i.e. broth of the pork.
[265] TIDBITS IN ANOTHER STYLE
_ALITER OFFELLAS_
ALSO FRY THE CUTLETS THIS WAY: [1] IN A PAN WITH PLENTY OF WINE SAUCE,
SPRINKLE WITH PEPPER AND SERVE. [ANOTHER WAY] [2] THE CUTLETS
PREVIOUSLY SALT AND PICKLED IN A BROTH OF CUMIN, ARE PROPERLY FRIED
[3].
[1] Tor. sentence wanting in other texts.
[2] The texts have two formulae; by the transposition of
the two sentences the formula appears as a whole and
one that is intelligible from a culinary point of view.
[3] The texts have: _in aqua recte friguntur_; the
_acqua_ presumably belongs to the cumin pickle. To fry
in water is not possible.
