As published

This recipe was extracted from Soyer's standard cookery (1912) by Nicolas Soyer, page 157. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Larded Leg of Mutton. Carefully raise and turn back the skin of a small leg of mutton, being careful not to tear it. Then lard the joint all over with fine strips of celery previously half cooked in a little stock, strips of cucumbers, a few branches of tarragon, and some strips of fat bacon. Cover the whole rather thickly with a mixture of minced anchovies and minced herbs, with pepper and salt

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