Amber-Pudding: Take, to make this the Guts of a young Hog, turn them and wash 'em very clean, then take Two Pound of the best Hogs-Lard, a Pound and a half of the best Jordan-Almonds

Page [unnumbered]

Almonds blanched, beat one half of them very small, and the other half reserve un∣beaten; take further, a Pound and a half of Sugar, Four Penny White-Loaves, grate them over the former Com∣position, and mingle them well, put in half an Ounce of Ambergrease scraped very small, half a quarter of an Ounce of Levant-Musk, a quarter of a Pint of Orange-flower-Water, mingle all these very well, fill the Guts, but not too tight; boil them over a gentle Fire for fear of break∣ing, and they will prove ex∣cellent fare.
