The Brains
must lie till the rest are prepared.
Take then the harsh'd part, and with some of the Liquor it was boil'd in,
put a Glass of White Wine, a little Mushroom Ketchup, a little Nutmeg
grated, and a little Mace beat fine, some Pepper and Salt, some grated
Lemon-Peel, and stew them together with a bunch of sweet Herbs, and some
Butter. When it is enough, put in a little Juice of Lemon, and thicken it
with Cream and Butter, in some of the same Liquor, with the Liquor of
Oysters parboil'd, a Pint of Oysters, and as many pickled Mushrooms, which
must be toss'd up with your Sauce, when you thicken it, remembring to cut
the Eye in pieces, amongst the Harsh.
Then for the other side of the Head, when you have cut the Flesh cross
ways, in Diamonds, about an Inch over, beat the Yolks of two or three Eggs,
and with a Feather past over it, cover it with the Yolks of Eggs, and then
drudge upon it the following Mixture.
Take some Raspings of Bread sifted, put to them some Flour, a little Pepper
and Salt, with some Mace and Nutmeg, in powder, and a little sweet Marjoram
powder'd, or shred small. Mix these well together; then set it in an Oven,
with some bits of Butter upon it, till it is enough, or before a brisk
Fire, till the drudging is brown: this must be laid in the middle of the
Dish, and the Harsh round it.
