Braised Breast of Veal.
Make a deep incision between the ribs and meat: stuff with a good force-meat made of crumbs, chopped salt pork, seasoning and a little onion. Skewer the flap of meat back into its place; put a layer of thin fat salt pork into a broad saucepan; lay the veal upon it. Pour in a cup of gravy—from the soup, if you have no other—cover with more fat pork, or ham, put on a close lid, and cook fifteen minutes to the pound. Take out the meat; set in a very quick oven, dredge with flour, and, as it browns, baste well with butter once. Keep hot upon a dish, while you strain the gravy in the braising-pan; thicken it with browned flour, season to taste, and stir in the juice of half a lemon, and a glass of claret. Boil up and pour a little upon the veal, the rest into a boat.
