Issu is the Head, Heart, Liver, and Chitterling, which must, be all very well scalded in boiling Water several times; then boiled all together in Broth or Water, with a few slices of Lard, Pepper, and Salt, a faggot of sweet Herbs, one clove of Garlick, and two of Spices; you may also add bits of Pickled Pork: When done, put the Head in the middle, and all the rest round, cut into pieces, with the Pickled Pork; serve with what Sauce you please. -You may also serve this in a plain way, with only sharp Sauce in a boat, made with a few chopped Shallots, sliced Onions, Pepper and Salt, a little Broth, and white Vinegar; infuse this about an hour or two; warm it, and sift it. - It may also be dressed as a Chicken Fricassee.
Bone one or two Shoulders of Lamb, all to the Handle-bone; chop some Truffles or Mushrooms, and fat Livers, which mix together with scraped Lard, Pepper and Salt, Parsley, Shallots, and two Yolks of Eggs; roll this Farce in the Shoulders, and braze them in a Pan much of their own bigness, with a little Broth, a few slices of Lard, a glass of Wine, a faggot of sweet Herbs, Pepper and Salt; when done, serve upon stewed Spinach, or any other sorts of Garden Greens.
Prepare one or two Shoulders of Lamb as the former, fill them with Forced-meat of roasted Fowls, Bread Crumbs soaked in Cream, Calf's Udder, Pepper and Salt, chopped Parsley, Chibol, (or green Shallots, which are much the same) mixed with Yolks of Eggs; roll them round and fasten them very well, to hinder the Farce from getting out; lard all the upper parts with middling larding bits, and boil them in good Broth with a faggot; when done, sift the Sauce in a lawn sieve, and reduce it to a Glaze, to put over the upper part with a light brush: Serve with what Sauce you please.
Bone a Fore-quarter of Lamb without cutting the Skin, and make a Farce after this manner: Cut three middling Onions into dice, and fry them in Lard; when almost done, add a few chopped Shallots, Powder of Basil, Parsley, Salt, and fine Spices a small quantity, four Yolks of Eggs, two spoonfuls of Cream, and half a pint of Lamb's Blood; simmer over the fire without boiling until it becomes pretty thick; put this preparation into the Lamb, roll it up in Cowl, and roast it, basting with Butter, or a thin Batter and Bread Crumbs; give it colour in the oven, and serve under it a Sauce au Canard, which you will find in Sauce Articles.

Cut Truffles, Pickled Pork, and fat Livers into slices, adding sliced Onions, and Fillets of Anchovies, seasoned with Pepper, Salt, and Nutmeg; take up the Skin of the Lamb cleanly; scarify the Flesh under in several places, and put the first preparation into it properly diversified, and then cover it all over with a Farce made of six hard Yolks of Eggs, chopped Shallots, Parsley, and scraped Lard; draw the Skin over, and fasten it well; boil it in Broth, with a faggot of sweet Herbs, a few Shallots, a clove of Gar-lick, two or three of Spices, Pepper and Salt, with a bottle of white Wine, and a few slices of Bacon: When done, take out the Lard and faggot, ice the upper part with a Glaze made of Veal Cullis, such as for Fricandeaux, and sift part of the Sauce; add a little Cullis to make a Liaison; reduce it pretty thick, and serve under the Meat.
