Mutton Kromeskys Recipe
Cut cold mutton in half inch dice; chop one ounce of
onion, and fry it pale yellow in one ounce of sweet drippings, (cost one
cent;) add one ounce of flour, and stir until smooth; add half a pint
of water, two tablespoonfuls of chopped parsley, one level teaspoonful
of salt, one level saltspoonful of white pepper, half a saltspoonful of
powdered herbs, as much cayenne as can be taken up on the point of a
very small penknife blade, and the chopped meat; the seasonings will
cost about one cent; stir until scalding hot, add the yolk of one raw
egg, (cost one cent,) cook for two minutes, stirring frequently; and
turn out to cool on a flat dish, slightly oiled, or buttered, to prevent
sticking, spreading the minced meat about an inch thick; set away to
