The Thorough Good Cook
Entrees: 1. Forcemeat Balls
Cut fine half a pound of
veal and the same quantity of
suet, and beat them in a
mortar. Shred fine a few
sweet herbs, a little dried
mace, a small
nutmeg grated, a little
lemon-
peel cut very fine, some
pepper and
salt, and the
yolks of two
eggs. Mix all well together, then roll some of it into small balls, and some into long pieces. Roll both in
flour, and fry them of a nice
brown. If they are to be used with
white sauce, instead of frying them pour a little water into a stew-pan, and when it
boils put them in, and they will be done in a few
minutes.
