Irish Stew
Chop corned beef and salt pork fine -- 2/3 beef And 1/3 pork, making the proper proportions. Put them in a stewpan with 6 whole peppercorns, 2 blades of mace, 1 teaspoonful of celery seeds and what sweet herbs are liked. Cover with water and stew very gently for an hour; then add 1 chopped potato, 1/2 turnip, 1/2 carrot also chopped, 1 sliced onion and 2 tablespoonfuls of vinegar to flavor. Thicken with flour, or boil 1/2 cupful of rice, putting it in at the same time with the vegetables. Put toasted bread cut in dice, or freshly baked biscuits, broken small, in the tureen; pour the stew over this and serve hot.
