fire, two of coriander-seed, finely-pounded, two of ginger, one ounce of cayenne
pepper, half-ounce of black pepper, one ounce of cinnamon, half-ounce of cloves,
half-ounce of cardimums, and a quarter of an ounce of cummin-seeds; pound them
all, rub them well together, and put it in a clean, dry bottle, and cork it

FRICASSEE CHICKEN.
Cut up two chickens, very neatly, put them in a saucepan with several slices of
pork, with pepper and salt; let them boil until quite tender, then lay them out
in a dish; take a table-spoonful of flour and a piece of butter as big as an
egg, roll them together until they are well mingled; put it in the saucepan with
the gravy, add a cup of cream, put the chicken back, and let it simmer together
until it is done to a rich, light brown; lay some toasted crackers in a deep
dish, and pour it in.

them until tender; then put them in an earthen dish.
