Original Text

Savory Forced Cucumbers.
TAKE two savory ones with force-meat, and the other
without. Stew them with gravy; season them with pepper and
salt, and when they are near enough take a piece of butter as big
as a large walnut rolled in flour, and put it. Let them stew till
they are enough, and the sauce thick; then lay them in your dish,
and pour the sauce over them. These things are best done on a
stove.
