(Good.)
Take a pound and a half of veal perfectly clear of fat and skin, and eight ounces of the nicest strips of bacon; chop them separately, then mix them well together with the grated rind of a small lemon, half a teaspoonful of salt, a fourth as much of cayenne, the third part of a nutmeg grated, and a half-teaspoonful of freshly pounded mace
