The Book of Household Management by Mrs. Beeton

892. INGREDIENTS.--3/4 lb. of cold roast veal, a small slice of bacon,

1/4 teaspoonful of minced lemon-peel, 1/2 onion chopped fine, salt, pepper, and pounded mace to taste, a slice of toast soaked in milk, 1 egg. _Mode_.--Mince the meat very fine, after removing from it all skin and outside pieces, and chop the bacon; mix these well together, adding the lemon-peel, onion, seasoning, mace, and toast. When all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated, heat up an egg, with which bind the mixture. Butter a shape, put in the meat, and hake for 3/4 hour; turn it out of the mould carefully, and pour round it a good brown gravy. A sheep's head dressed in this manner is an economical and savoury dish. _Time_.--3/4 hour. _Average cost_, exclusive of the meat, 6d. _Seasonable_ from March to October. BRAISED NECK OF VEAL.
