Chop and pound to a paste any fragments of cooked ham, tongue,
poultry, game or fish. With ham use a quarter part of fat. Remove all
gristle and skin and pound until free from any fibre and reduced to a
paste. Season highly with salt, pepper, cayenne, and made mustard, and
moisten with a little melted butter (except ham, which has fat
enough).
Pack closely in small stone or earthen jars. Put jars in steamer and
heat for one half hour. Then press the meat down again and cover with
hot melted butter. This will keep some time and may be served in
slices or used for sandwiches. Ham and tongue may be mixed with veal
or chicken. Beef, game and fish are better alone.

Mix thoroughly the salt peter, 1 pint salt and brown sugar and rub

pepper and part of the remaining salt. Let stand for 5 days and then
rub meat again with fine salt. Set aside for 30 days, hang the meat up
and brush off the salt. Have hams smoked at a good smoke house,
smoking them for 10 days with wood. When finished, rub entire ham with
red pepper, wrap carefully in brown paper and then in muslin bags and
hang up with the hock down. Hams prepared in this manner will keep
