Salt Beef Recipe

The British fleet, which now commands the main,

Might glorious wreaths of victory obtain,

Would they take time, would they with leisure work,

With care would _salt their beef_, and cure their pork.

There is no dish, but what _our_ cooks have made

And merited a charter by their trade.

KING.



Make a pickle of rock salt and cold water strong enough to bear an egg,

let a little salt remain in the bottom of the tub; two quarts of

molasses and a quarter pound of saltpetre is sufficient for a cwt. of

beef. It is fit for use in ten days. Boil the beef slowly until the

bones come out easily, then wrap it in a towel, and put a heavy weight

on it till cold.
