The MYSTERIES OF COOKERY. 1t is said
that some of the great cooks of ancient
Greece carried their art to such perfection,
that they were able to serve up whole
pig, boiled on one side and roasted on the
Other and stuffed besides, though without
visible mark of the knife upon it. The
inventor CT this feat was cruel enough TO
keep the process secret for a whole year.
Vt length it was revealed that he bled the
animal to death by a very small wound
under the shoul Ter, by which he also
extracted the cltrails piccemeal; that he
had forced the stuffing down the throat:
and that 0y means OF barley paste, he
had prevented the roasting on one side,
having boiled it afterwards. 1t is said
also OF these Gree, cooks. that by their
saliinss, piekl;nss, and fryings. they
could actually make turnip pass for any
kind of fish or hcsh they choose.
