The Epicure's Almanac or Diary of Good Living
January 29th : VEAL STOCK
Boil, in two quarts of water, for four hours, four pounds of veal; knuckle, neck, or breast are the best joints, but be careful to have that weight of meat independent of the bones, which you can easily ascertain by cutting it off; put into the saucepan an onion and a carrot, with a tea-spoonful of salt; strain it, and take the fat off when cold.
