MEATS AND VEGETABLES
Beef, to salt
ОглавлениеInto four gallons of water put one pound and a half of coarse brown sugar, two ounces of saltpetre, and six pounds of bay salt; boil and skim as long as any scum rises. When cold, put in the meat, which must be quite covered with pickle: once in two months boil up the pickle again, skimming carefully. Add in the boiling two ounces of coarse sugar, half a pound of bay salt, and the same pickle will be good for twelve months. It is incomparable for hung beef, hams, or neats’ tongues. When you take them out of this pickle, clean, dry, and put them in a paper bag, and hang them up in a dry place.
Pork may be pickled in the same manner.
