Boiling Meat, Tripe, Vegetables
Ingredients
Directions
Plunge the meat into boiling water to cover it completely.
Reduce heat to simmer gently, avoiding a rolling boil.
Remove any scum that rises to the surface.
If using salted meat, soak it in tepid water to draw out excess salt.
Wipe the meat, weigh it, and secure it with string before boiling.
Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
