Veal Collops.
3 lbs. of lean veal, cut into square bits, two inches across, and more than half an inch thick; ¼ lb. fat salt pork, cut into lardoons; 1 cup of gravy taken from your soup before adding the vegetables; 1 cup of drawn butter; yolks of 2 eggs; juice of half a lemon; pepper, salt, nutmeg, and a pinch of mace.
Lard the veal with the pork, and lay in a pan of boiling water three minutes. Have ready a cup of gravy seasoned with nutmeg, pepper, salt, and lemon-peel. Put in the meat, and simmer half an hour very gently. Beat the yolks into the drawn butter; stir in the lemon-juice; add to the contents of the saucepan, and stir, carefully, not to break the lardoons, five minutes. Heap the collops into a block upon a dish, and pour on the gravy.
