As published

This recipe was extracted from The easiest way in housekeeping and cooking (1881) by Helen Stuart Campbell, page 76. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Irish Stevt. This may be made of either beef or mutton, though mutton is generally used. Reject all bones, and trim off all fat and gristle, reserving these for the stock-pot. Cut the meat in small pieces, not over an inch square, and cover with cold water. Skim carefully as it boils up, and see that the water is kept at the same level by adding as it boils away. For two pounds of meat allow two sliced onions, eight good-sized potatoes, two teaspoonfuls of salt, and half a teaspoonful of pepper

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
