You must cut the meat off the bone, lay it in your stew-pan, cover it with water, put in a spoonful of whole pepper, two onions, a bundle of sweet-herbs, some salt, and a pint of red wine; cover it close, let it stew over a slow or low fire for four hours, shaking it sometimes, and turning it four or five times; making gravy as for soup put in three quarts, keep it stirring till dinner is ready; take ten or twelve turnips, cut them into slices the broad way, then cut them into four, flour them, and fry them brown in beef dripping.
