Take Beefe Pallats after they be boyled tender in the Beefe Kettle, or Pot among some other meat, blanch and serve them cleane, then cut each Pallat in two, and set them a stewing between two Dishes with a piece of leer Bacon, an handful of Champignions, five or six sweetbreads of Veale, a Ladle-full or two of strong broth, and as much gravy of Mutton, an Onion or two, five or six Cloves, and a blade or two of Mace, and a piece of Orange Pils; as your Pallats stew, make ready your Dish with the bottoms and tops of two or three Cheat Loaves dryed and moystned with some Gravy of Mutton, and the broth your Palats stew in, you must have the Marrow of two or three beef-bones stewed in a little broth between two Dishes in great pieces; when your Pallats and Marrow iss stewed, and you ready to Dish it, take out all the Spices, Onyon and Bacon, and lay it in your Plates, sweetbread, and Champigneons, pour in the Broath they were stewed in & lay on your peices of Marrow, wring the juyce of two or three Oranges; and so serve it to the Table very hot.

A way of stewing Chickens or Rabbets.

Take two three or foure Chickens, and let them be about the bigness of a Partridge, boyl them til they be half boyled enough, then take them off and cut them into little peices, putting the joynt bone one from another, and let not the meat be minced, but cut into great bits, not so exactly but more or lesse, the brest bones are not so proper to be put in, but put the meat together with the other bones (upon which there must also be some meat remaining) into a good quantity of that Water or Broth wherein the Chickens were boyled, and set it then over a Chaffing-Dish of coales betweeen two Dishes, that so it may stew on till it be fully enough; but first season it with Salt and gross Pepper, and afterwards add Oyl to it, more or lesse according to the goodnesse thereof; and a little before you take it from the fire, you must adde such a quantity of juyce of Lemons as may best agree with your Taste. This makes an excellent dish of Meat, which must be served up in the Liquor; and though for a need it may be made with Butter instead of Oyl, and with Vinegar in stead of Juyce of Lemons, yet is the other incomparably better for such as are not Enemies to Oyle. The same Dish may be made also of Veal, or Partridge, or Rabbets, and indeed the best of them all, is Rabbets, if they be used so before Michaelmas, for afterwards me-thinkes they grow ranke; for though they be fatter, yet the flesh is more hard and dry.
