Minced Pork

Chop up finely a couple of pounds of fresh lean pork, and break up half a pound of stale bread, soaking it till soft in three-quarters of a pint of milk; mix together the minced pork and soaked bread, with two well-beaten eggs, and season with pepper, salt and powdered sage; place this mixture in a buttered earthenware dish, place it in a moderate oven and bake for two hours, and serve hot with fried apples.
