Recipe to dress carp
Description
Continued from Folio 2. Page 13. Recto
melt & take the whites of 10 eggs well
beaten- the juice of 6 lemons half a
pint of white wine- sugar to your taste
mix them all together & set them on
the fire to boil a little while- put
a bit of lemon peel into the Bag &
pour it through 3 or 4 times, till it is
very clear- be sure your lemons are
very clean before you pare them- if
you put a small bit about
the breadth of a straw into your glass
it will give it a fine flavor- if you
intend the jelly to turn out in shapes
you must boil 2 ounces oz of Isinglass with
the shavings- before you set the jelly
on to warm the second day after you
have straine’d it from the shavings, then
it will be the same settlement, do not put
that in-
To dress Carp
Take your two Carp and bleed them in
half a pint of white wine, take the livers
& chop them with two anchovies, a handful
of Parsley, a single sprig of Thyme a little
bit of onion, two spoonfuls of Elder
