A few days since, in one of the letters from the
Crimea, a wish was expressed that a few receipts
might be given in the London papers to render the
rations of salt pork more palatable. The following
two or three will be found very agreeable :-
1. Cut slices of pork, and a little of the fat, as thick
as your finger, and two inches long ; dredge with flour,
and fry in butter of a nice brown ; drain the butter from
the meat; warm the latter in half a pint of gravy (or
water), seasoned with pepper, anchovy, or any other
sauce, and a little onion minced very fine ; do not let it
boil on any account. Before serving add two table-
spoonfuls of vinegar.
2. To 71b. or Sib. iof pork or beef put one cabbage,
four turnips, eight carrots, one head of celery, 4oz. of
barley, and pepper and salt according to taste : stew
very gently in six quarts of water till tender.
3. One pound of uncooked meat, to be well pounded ;
two thick slices of bread soaked in het water, 4ez. of
butter, three eggs, one and a-half teaspoonfuls of ground
black pepper, one of salt, half a nutmeg, grated : all to
be well mixed, and baked.
4. Cut six or eight thick steaks of pork ; season them
well with pepper • butter a piedish and lay them in.
Mlake a batter with one quart of milk, two eggs, eight
tablespoonfuls of flour ; pour over the steaks, and bake.
N.B. This is almost as good made with water instead
of milk.

5. Skin and cut a large fowl into joints ; wash and lay
it in cold water for an hour ; cut some salt beef or pork
into thin slices, and, if it is very salt, soak it a short time
in water ; make a paste of flour and butter in the pro-
portion of alb. of butter to 11b. of flour ; cut it into
round pieces the size of the pet in which the pie is to be
stewed ; butter well the inside of tke pot, and lay in a
layer of beef seasoned with pepper, salt, and some
onions, finely minced ; then put a layer of the paste,
and then the fowl, highly seasoned with the above ;
add another layer of paste, and pour in three pints of
cold water ; cover the pot close, and let the pie stew
gently for nearly foar hours, taking care it does not
burn.
