Potted Game

Remove the skin from some remains of cold, cooked game, chop the meat, put it in a mortar and pound until quite smooth. Mix with it about a third of its bulk of fresh butter and season to taste with pounded mace, pepper, salt and a small quantity of cayenne. When quite smooth, turn the mixture into small jars, cover and tie down.
