| allowed to freeze either before or dur
ing the period of curing.
Much diversity of opinion exists a:
to the merits of the brine cure and the
dry cure. The brine cure is consider
ed less trouble than the old dry cure
of salt and sugar. But, by substi-
tuting warm molasses for the sugar
much of the work of breaking and re-
rubbing of the meat can be eliminated
Besides, under the dry atmosphere
during the long dry season in south
ern Idaho, it is impossible to prevent
the brine-cured meat from becoming
hard. Meat cured by the following
recipe, however, can be kept soft dur
ing the .severest dry weather and for
long period of time. The best re-
cipe to use in Idaho would be as fol-
lows:
For each 100 lbs. of meat use:
lbs. of salt.
2 lbs. of warm molasses dark.
OF. OF red pepper.
OF. of black pepper.
2 or. of saltpeter.
Coarse salt should be used. Dark
sorghum molasses is best suited for
the syrup. Do not use corn syrup.
Syrup made from sugar is better.
Brown sugar is better than granulat-
ed sugar, but either should be made
into syrup before using. All Of the
above ingredients should be mixed
thoroughly into the exposed parts Of
the flesh of the meat before adding
the warm syrup. The mixture with
the syrup will form Jumps and these
must be rubbed out.
If possible, the meat should be pack
ed in barrel or tight box, the hams
being placed on the bottom, flesh side
up, then the shoulders and the sides
being placed on top. All of the mix
ture that will stick to the meat should
be allowed to remain. If there is no
container to put the meat in, it can
be stacked on table or bench, but IN
this case it would be safer to use three
pounds of molasses in place of two
pounds in the above recipe.
In using the brine or the ordinary
dry cure, it is generally advisable to
rub the surface of the meat with fine
salt and allow it TO drain, flesh side
down, for six to IL hours before be-
ing put in the cure. This is not nee
essary in using the mol2sses cure, but
there could be no objection to using
this precaution. The meat should be
allowed to cure for about six weeks.
After removing the meat from the
pack, the curing mixture should be
brushed off the meat, but the meat
should not be washed. The meat
should now be smoked, which helps to
,erserve it and gives very desirable
