Tongues To Cure No 3 Recipe

Take two fine neats' tongues; cut off the roots, and cut a nick in the

under side; wash them clean, and dry with a cloth. Rub them with common

salt, and lay them on a board all night. Next day take two ounces of bay

salt, one of sal prunella, and a handful of juniper-berries, all bruised

fine; mix them with a quarter of a pound of coarse sugar and one pound

of common salt. Rub the tongues well with this mixture; lay them in a

long pan, and turn and rub them daily for a fortnight. Take them out of

the pickle, and either dry or dress them.
