VEAL CAKE (another way)

Take as much cold cooked lean veal as will fill a small earthenware mould. Mince it finely, and mix with it three ounces of ham or bacon, also minced, a slice of the crumb of bread soaked in milk, a small piece of butter, two eggs well beaten, as much minced shallot as will lie on a threepenny piece, and a little pepper, salt, and pounded mace. Mix these ingredients thoroughly, press them into a buttered mould, and bake the preparation in a moderate oven. Turn it out when cold, and garnish with parsley. If liked, this cake may be served hot, and sent to table with brown gravy. Time to bake the cake, about an hour, or until it is brown.
