As published

This recipe was extracted from The closet of Sir Kenelm Digby Knight opened (1910) by Sir Kenelm Digby, page 125. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

TO BOIL BEEF OR VENISON TENDER AND SAVOURY The way to have Beef tenderest, short and best boiled, as my Lord of Saint Alban'suseth it, is thus. Take a rump or brisket of beef ; keep it without salt as long as you may, without danger to have it smell ill. For so it groweth mellow and tender, which it would not do, if it were presently salted. 2 IP SIR KENELMS DIGBIE When it is sufficiently mortified, rub it well with Salt
