llet of Veale, 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.
