Ham, Minced

Take a pound of lean ham already cooked; mince it very finely, and mix with it a little cayenne and a blade of mace, powdered. Put it into a saucepan with two table-spoonfuls of cream and half a pint of good veal stock. Stir it over the fire for a few minutes until quite hot, but it must not boil, and serve on buttered toast. This is a good dish for breakfast or supper. Probable cost, 1s. 6d. Sufficient for two or three persons.
