Venison, Beef Potted in Imitation Of

Put eight or ten pounds of lean beef into a deep dish, pour a pint of wine over it, and let it lie for two days, seasoning well with mace, pepper, salt, and a clove of garlic; then lay it in a closely-covered pot along with the wine--add another glassful if there is not enough--and bake for three hours in a quick oven. When cold, pound the meat to a paste, and pot in the usual way.
