Spinach Recipe

Much meat doth Gluttony procure,

To feed men fat as swine;

But he's a frugal man, indeed,

That on _the leaf_ can dine.



Pick it very carefully, and wash it thoroughly two or three times; then

put it on in boiling water with a little salt; let it boil nearly twenty

minutes. Put it into a cullender; hold it under the watercock, and let

the water run on it for a minute. Put it into a saucepan; beat it

perfectly smooth with a wooden spoon; add a bit of butter, and three

tablespoonfuls of cream. Mix it well together, and make it hot before

serving.
