pick away all the skins in the fold of the flesh, after
you have picked it out clean, so that no skins are left, nor any hard
thing; put to it some good White-Wine (that is not too sweet) in a bowl
& wash it, & crush it well in the Wine; doe so twice, then strew upon it
a powder that is called _Tamara_ in _Italy_, and so much Salt as will
season it well, mingle the Powder well upon the Pasts of your meat, then
poure to it so much White-Wine as will cover it when it is thrust down
into a narrow Pan; lay a Trencher on it and a weight to keep it downe,
let it lye two nights and one day, put a little Pepper to it when you
lay it in the Sauce, and after it it is sowsed so long, take it out and
put it into a Pipkin with some good Beef-broth, but you must not take
any of the pickle to it, but onely Beef-broth that is sweet and not
salt; cover it close and set it on the Embers, onely put into it with
the Broth a few whole Cloves and Mace, and let it stew till it be
enough. It will be very tender and of an excellent Taste; it must be
served with the same broth as much as will cover it.
To make the Italian, take Coriander seed two Ounces, Aniseed one ounce,
Fennel-seed one ounce, Cloves two ounces, Cinamon one ounce; These must
be beaten into a grosse powder, putting into it a little powder of
Winter-savoury; if you like it, keep this in a Vial-glasse close stopt
for your use.

the Soales, and fry them in the best Ale you can get; when they are
fryed lay them in a warme Pie-plate, and so serve them to the Table with
a Sallet dish full of Anchovy sauce, and three or four Oranges.
_To make Furmity._
Take a quart of Creame, a quarter of a pound of French-barley the
