Ingredients
- 1 pint cold water 1 small teaspoon ful salt wipe the meat
- 1 small teaspoon ful salt wipe the meat
Directions
1 lb. lean, juicy beef 1 pint cold water
1 small teaspoon ful salt
Wipe the meat with a damp cloth to make sure it is quite clean. This is very important, as you do not know whose hands may have touched it. Then place on a board, and with a sharp knife scrape or shred down as finely as possible ; the more finely it is shredcd the more juice you will extract; keep back any pieces of fat or skin. Put the meat into a jar, pour the water over and stir well. Then cover with paper, put the jar into a saucepan of cold water, heat very slowly ; water must boil for an hour. Press through a fine strainer, reheat, flavour, and serve very hot. In cases of fever no salt is allowed. If any fat is seen remove with paper.
