Potage of old dry Pease.

Take a quantity of Seed-pease which are the best, pick those that are worm-eaten from the rest and wash them; then put them into boiling liquor, being tender boil'd, take out some of them and strain them, and set them by for your use, then season the rest with Salt, a bundle of Mints and But∣ter, let these stew leisurely, and strow some Pepper over them.

Put Salt to your strained Pease-potage with large Mace, a bundle of sweet Herbs, and some pickled Capers, stew them well together, lay in the bottom of your Dish slices of bread, and grated manchet to gar∣nish it.
