Baked or Stewed Calf's Foot

Ingredients

• 1 calf's foot
• 1 pint milk
• 1 pint water
• 1 blade mace
• the rind of 1/4 lemon
• pepper and salt to taste

Instructions

1. Well clean the foot, and either stew or bake it in the milk-and-water with the other ingredients from 3 to 4 hours.
2. To enhance the flavour, an onion and a small quantity of celery may be added, if approved; 1/2 a teacupful of cream, stirred in just before serving, is also a great improvement to this dish.
