Another very excellent way to bake Red Deer.

Bone your Venison, and if it be the side, skin it, and beat it with an Iron-pestle, but not too small, then lay it a steeping in Cla∣ret wine and Vinegar twenty four hours:

having lain that time, take it out, and dry it with a cloth; if it be lean, lard it with great Lard as long and as thick as your fin∣ger; season it exceeding well with Nutmeg, Mace, Ginger, Pepper and Salt, make your Pye with Rye Paste, deep, round, and ve∣ry thick, laying Bay-leaves in the bottom and top, then close it, leaving a funnel in the middle; if you intend to keep it long, when it is baked, pour away all the Gravy, and take Butter and knead it, and wash it in two or three waters, then melt it, and fill up your Pye therewith; you may keep it thus a quarter of a year, you may bake it after this manner in a Pot, and it will not only keep longer, but require less Butter to fill it up.
