Oyster Sausages. Take half a pound of lean beef or mutton, three-quarters of a pound of beef suet, two score of oysters bearded and scalded in their own liquor, then dried ; chop all together, adding bread-crumbs and yolks of eggs to " bind." Season well with salt, white pepper, mace, and a grate of nutmeg ; or if you wish to make the mixture very savoury, leave out the mace and nutmeg, but add a little cayenne, with a minced shallot and a spoonful of garlic vinegar

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