Pork Broth Recipe

Take a leg of pork fresh cut up; beat it and break the bone; put it into

three gallons of soft water, with half an ounce of mace and the same

quantity of nutmeg. Let it boil very gently over a slow fire, until two

thirds of the water are consumed. Strain the broth through a fine sieve,

and when it is cold take off the fat. Drink a large cupful in the

morning fasting, and between meals, and just before going to bed,

warmed. Season it with a little salt. This is a fine restorative.
