Mutton, Loin of, Roasted
Follow the directions given for roast leg in every particular (see MUTTON, LEG OF, TO ROAST), but trim off all unnecessary fat, which may be used for a common suet crust. If the fat be not turned to account there is no more expensive joint than a loin of mutton. Cover the fat with paper until within a quarter of an hour of its being done, then remove. baste, and flour slightly, to get it frothed. ?These, a quarter of an hour to the pound. Probable cost, 10d. per pound. Sufficient, one chop for each person.
