Cheese (Tablespoonfuls at a time Dr)
tablespoonfuls at a time. Dr. Stacey Jones advises Celery-tea, hot and strong (with cream and sugar, if desired), to be drunk by the teacupful three or four times in the day, so as to abate neuralgia, and even sciatica, which it sometimes will do very speedily; likewise sick headaches. For ordinary stewed Celery as a vegetable dish, cut five or six sticks of Celery into lengths, each about four inches, and stew these in some good brown stock until tender; take out the Celery, and reduce the stock to half the quantity: thicken with a little butter and flour : add pepper and salt: then pour this over the Celery, and serve on a square of toast, very hot. For making Celery water, allow a large head for each quart of water. Cook this when washed, and cut up, until the water is reduced to a pint : then strain, and give a wineglassful two or three times in the day. It is best taken on an empty stomach.
