Half boil the head, and then cut it in pieces; put it into a stew-pan, with a pint of white wine, and a pint of strong broth, an onion cut in quarters, and a little lemon peel; add to these, a quart of oysters, two or three anchovies, and a pickled cucumber: when they are enough, add the brains, some forced meat balls, and some gravy; keep them on the fire a while, and then put them in a dish, and serve them up.
Clean the head, and take an earthen-dish rub'd with butter, puting some long iron skewers across it, to lay the head on; then make a mixture of grated nutmeg, some crumbs of bread, a little lemon-peel cut fine, and some sweet herbs shred-ded; strew this all over it, and then flour it: this done, stick bits of butter all over it, and then flour it again : let it be baked till it is of a fine brown, and then take it up, and set it to the fire to keep hot : put into the dish a piece of beef cut small, a bundle of sweet herbs, an onion, some whole pepper, a blade of mace, two cloves and a pint of water : boil the brains with some sage; then stir all together in the dish, pour the mixture into a sauce-pan, and boil it; strain off the liquor, and put it into the sauce-pan again with a piece of butter roll'd in flour, adding the sage chopt fine that was in the brains, a spoonful of catchup, and two spoonfuls of red wine; boil them together, and mix in the brains, after they are well beaten, pour it into the dish, and send it to the table.
Let your bread of veal be almost roasted, then carbonadoe it, and afterwards, lay it in a stew-pan with strong broth just enough to cover it; this done, take an onion stuck with cloves, a bundle of sweet herbs, a little salt, some whole pepper, a little bit of lemon-peel, and a bay leaf; put them into the broth, and let them stew leisurely: when the veal is almost enough, put in a quart of stew'd oysters, a roasted sweet bread or two, an anchovy, two oranges sliced, some shredded capers, and half a pint of white wine, with the same quantity of gravy, some grated bread, and a lump of butter, shake them together; lay the veal in the dish, and pour out the sauce over it; but the onions, herbs, and spice must be picked out, before it is served up.
Cut a piece of double tripe into slices of two inches long, and half an inch broad; put them into the stew-pan, with a little salt, a bundle of sweet herbs, a little lemon-peel, an onion, a little anchovy pickle, a bay leaf, and just water enough to cover them; let them flew together till the tripe is very tender, and then take it up; strain the liquor out, and then shred a spoonful of capers into half a pint of it, with a glass of white wine : boil this mixture a while with the tripe, and then beat up the yolks of three eggs, with a little mace, nutmeg, and two cloves, in fine powder; a small handful of parsely pick'd and shredded fine, a piece of butter rolled in flour, and half a pint of cream: mix these well together, and put the mixture into the stew-pan, keeping it stirring all one way; when it comes to be of a proper thickness, and smooth at the same time, dish it up, and garnish with lemon.
