"The Country Housewife and Lady's Director in the Management of a House, and the Delights and Profits of a Farm"

The Mussel-Plum is a
very good one for this use.

The _Shropshire_ and _Worcestershire-Dish._ From the same.
Sir,
If you would please all People, by the several Receipts you publish, you
ought to have the particular Dish that is the Favourite of every County. In
_Worcestershire_ and _Shropshire_, the following is in esteem, and I
believe you will oblige several Gentlemen and Ladies of these Parts, if you
would insert it in some of your Works.
Take some good middling Bacon, and fry it; then put in some Calf's Liver,
and cut it in thick Pieces, pepper it, and salt it; and when it is enough,
for it must not be fry'd hard, have ready prepared some Cabbage-Lettuce,
some white Beet-Cards, or Beet-Leaves, and some Spinach-Leaves, and chop
them together, with some Parsley, but not too small; then chop some Onion,
and mix with the rest; then throw them into your Frying pan, with a piece
of Butter, when the Bacon and Liver is out, and fry them till they are
tender, and as brown as may be; putting in a spoonful of Verjuice, or the
Juice of a Lemon, a little before they are enough. And having kept the
Liver and Bacon hot all the while, pour these Herbs over them, which ought
to be in good quantity.

Fine _Cakes_ to keep.
