We have our understandings no less different than our palates; and he that thinks the same truth shall be equally relished by every one in the same dress, may as well hope to feast every one with the same sort of cookery: the meat may be the same, and the nourishment good, yet every one not be able to receive it with that seasoning; and it must be dressed another way, if you will have it go down with some, even of strong constitutions.
Malfalconnet glanced significantly toward Martina, and, while offering Barbara a goblet of lemonade, said, "There is candied lemon and other seasoning in it, so it will probably suit your taste, exacting beauty, since you appear to dislike what is pure." "Only when poison is mixed with it," she answered quickly, tossing her head arrogantly.
The browned fish were spread on the green leaves, and Fred sprinkled the seasoning upon the portions to be eaten by himself and Terry; the Shawanoe preferred none on his. "If nothing unexpected happens," said Fred, "we will arrive at the cabin to-day." The Shawanoe inclined his head by way of answer. "When will the Winnebagos that are following us come to this stream?"
For a dozen quails use: 1 box of gelatin 1 quart of milk 1 tablespoonful of grated onion 2 truffles 4 level tablespoonfuls of butter 4 level tablespoonfuls of flour 2 teaspoonfuls of salt 1 saltspoonful of white pepper Soak the gelatin in the milk a half hour. Rub the butter and flour together, then add the milk and gelatin, stir until boiling, and add all the seasoning and strain.
Select tomatoes of uniform size, cut a slice from the stem end and scoop out a portion of the pulp. Have in readiness a dressing made from grated bread crumbs, parsley, a slice of minced onion, a high seasoning of salt and paprika and sufficient melted butter to moisten. Fill this into the tomatoes and heap it up in the centers.
To Roast a Collar, or Fillet, of Sturgeon; from the same. Take a piece of fresh Sturgeon; take out the Bones, and cut the fleshy Part into Lengths, about seven or eight Inches; then provide some Shrimps, chopt small with Oysters; some Crumbs of Bread, and such seasoning of Spice as you like, with a little Lemon-Peel grated.
The reader will of course understand the precise amount of seasoning which must be added to it before he adopts it as one of the axioms of his life. This business of conversation is a very serious matter. There are men that it weakens one to talk with an hour more than a day's fasting would do.
Those portions of it which have not had sufficient sun in the drying process, become tainted, and the odour is anything but agreeable. For all, it serves a purpose in those countries where salt is a scarce commodity; and cooked as all Spanish Americans cook it with a plentiful seasoning of onions, garlic, and chili, the "gamey" flavour ceases to be perceptible.
Take a young hare, cut her in pieces as you did for stewing, and beat it well, season it with the same seasoning you did before, put it into a pitcher or any other close pot, with half a pound of butter, set it in a pot of boiling water, stop up the pitcher close with a cloth, and lay upon it some weight for fear it should fall on one side; it will take about two hours in stewing; mind your pot be full of water, and keep it boiling all the time; when it is enough take the gravy from it, clear off the fat, and put her into your gravy in a stew-pan, with a spoonful or two of white wine, a little juice of lemon, shred lemon-peel and mace; you must thicken it up as you would a white fricassy.
Hence a great part of his comic very soon became obsolete, and as early as the re-opening of the theatre under Charles II., no actors could be found who were capable of doing justice to such caricatures. Local colours like these can only be preserved from fading by the most complete seasoning with wit. This is what Shakspeare has effected.
