1 MAURICE FRISCHER of 19 Jewin Street London Merchant, do hereby declare
the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be
particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
My composition consists of the following ingredients combined in the proportions
stated cit
Flour
Common Salt
Pepper or Paprika
Garlic finely ground
Bullock's blood
One egg.
50 parts
2 parts
0.3 to 0.5 parts
2 parts
4 parts
The chief constituent of the composition is flour; the salt, pepper, paprika and
garlic being added for seasoning and flavoring while the bullock's blood and egg serve
to bind the ingredients together-If desired the garlic may be dispensed with-The
blood is taken from the slaughtered beast in a liquid state in a clean vessel and stirred
therein and immediately before being used is poured into another clean vessel-It
should generally be used before the lapse of 48 hours from the time the beast was
slaughtered.
The various ingredients after being well kneaded together into a paste are rolled
into sheets of any convenient size and of about three millimetres in thickness―The
sheets are then powdered with flour to prevent their sticking, after which they are
preferably cut into strips somewhat resembling the shape of maccaroni, or they may
be ground down to any suitable degree of fineness.
The product when cooked with water in the usual way, or roasted, or fried with
onions and fat, or made into a soup, or otherwise prepared forms a wholesome palatable
and nutritious preserved food.
One essential advantage is that it can be kept for a considerable time without
deterioration and without being hermetically closed, particularly in dry places.
I am aware that flour and salt have been used in preparing articles of preserved
food but I am not aware that all the ingredients of my composition in the proportions
stated have been used together.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I claim is
The hereinbefore described composition of matter to be used as a preserved food
consisting of flour, common salt, pepper or paprika, garlic finely ground, bullock's
blood and egg combined substantially in the proportions and manner hereinbefore
described.
