Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,368 texts created during Phase 1 of the project (2000-2009), initially available only to institutions that contributed to their creation, were released into the public domain on 1 January 2015. The approximately 40,000 texts produced during Phase 2 (2009- ), of which 34,963 had been released as of 2020, originally similarly restricted, were similarly freed from all restrictions on 1 August 2020. As of that date anyone is free to take and use these texts for any purpose (modify them, annotate them, distribute them, etc.). But we do respectfully request that due credit and attribution be given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

By IOHN MVRRELL.

TO THE VERTVOVS and well accompliſhed Gentlewoman Mris Martha Hayes (Daughter to the honorable Sr Thomas Hayes Knight, late Lord Maior of the City of London:) health and happineſſe.

OF this Name and Nature (worthy Gentlewoman,) many ſmall Books and Pamphlets have heretofore beene publiſhed the moſt of which nevertheleſſe have inſtructed rather how to marre then make good Meate: but this (in credit of my knowledge, and ſtrict obſervation in Travell) is experimentally ſuch as it pretends to bee in the Title Page thereof. Whereof I can ſay bu this, and this it will perform for the ſayer, That it gives each Meat his right for the manner o dreſſing; Each diſh his due, fo the order of ſerving: and both good proofe of my deſire to pleaſe and profit in the publiſhing. So, referring it to you worthy peruſall, and my ſelfe to your favourable opinion, I eve remaine.

London, Iuly, 20 1630 Yours, no leſſe humbl then truly devote
The firſt Booke of Cookery.

BY reaſon of the generall ignorance of moſt men in this practiſe of Catering. I haue ſet downe here a perfect direction how to ſet forth an extraordinary Dyet for the Summer ſeaſon, when theſe things mentioned may eaſily be had. It ſerueth alſo for a Direction for a Bill of fare: and alſo for a perfect direction for the ſeruing of dinner orderly, twenty Diſhes to your firſt Meſſe, and as many to the ſecond Courſe to the ſame Meſſe, and ten to the third Courſe: ſo that in all you haue fifty diſhes to your Meſſe. For the boords end you may leaue out ſome of the coſtlieſt diſhes: if you haue ten or twelue for the boords end it is ſufficient. If you cannot come by all theſe things named, then you may place ſome other thing at your diſcretion in the place, ſo that it be not groſſe meate, for groſſe meat diſgraceth the Feaſt.

Alſo, another Direction for another ſeruice for the Winter ſeaſon, of twenty Diſhes to the firſt Meſſe, and as many to the ſecond Courſe to the ſame meſſe: ſo that in al there be forty Diſhes to the meſſe although it be contrary to the other ſeruice of the Summer ſeaſon. And you may take of theſe meates half ſo many to the boords end, and it will be ſufficient both for the firſt and the ſecond: but if your perſons be of equall dignitie, then ſerue your firſt Meſſe, and the boords end, all as one alike equally.

A third Direction for a common ordinary Seruice of ten or twelue diſhes to a meſſe, to your firſt Meſſe, and as many to the ſecond Courſe to the ſame Meſſe, ſo that in all there will bee twenty diſhes to your Meſſe: but to your boords end ſixe or eight, according as your boord will hold. If any of theſe meates named be wanting, then you may place ſome other that you haue ready at hand.

Theſe Directions ſerue both for a Bill of fare, and to ſerue out your meat in good order: it is alſo a direction to young practitioners which vnderſtand not theſe buſineſſes.

Then take them off the fire, and ſcum of the fat cleane from the broth, with a ſpoone, for otherwiſe it will make it to taſte ranke. Put in a piece of ſweet Butter: ſeaſon it with Verjuyce, Nutmeg, and a little Sugar, thicken it with Ryce boyled in ſweet Creame.

Garniſh your diſh ſides with ſweet Sucket and ſugar, after you haue ſeaſoned your broth. In like ſort you may boyle a Capon, but then you muſt put Marrow into your White broth. If you diſlike Mutton-broth, then boyle it by it ſelfe in faire water till it turne as white as a Curd. But the French men follow the other way, & it is the better.

To boyle a Teale or Wigeon on the French faſhion.

PArboyle either of theſe Fowles, and throw them in a Pale of faire water (for that taketh away the ranckneſſe of the fleſh.) Then roaſt them halfe, & take them off the fire, & put ſweet Hearbs in the bellies of them: lace them downe the breaſt, and ſtick them with two or three whole Cloues in the breſt with your knif in euery one of them ſo many.

Then mince two Onyons very ſmall, with a péece of an Apple, ſo let them boyle leiſurely, cloſe couered, the ſpace of two houres, turning them now & then. Serue them in vpon Sippets.

To the tryall whereof I referre them: recommending it and my ſelfe, to your Ladyſhips wonted favour, reſting in all humble ſervice

The office of the Butler and Pantler, Yeoman of the Cellar and Ewry.

THou ſhalt be Butler and Pantler all the firſt year, and yée muſt haue thrée pantry Kniues, one Knife to ſquare Trencher-loaues, another to be a Chipper, the third ſhall be ſharpe for to make ſmoothe Trenchers: then chip your Soueraignes bread hot, and all other bread let it be a day old, houſhould bread three dayes old, Trencher-bread foure dayes old, then look your Salt be white and drye, the powder made of Iuory two inches broad, & three inches long: and looke that your Saltceller lidde touch not the Salt: then looke your table cloathes, towells and napkins be faire foulded in a cheſt or hanged vpon a pearch, thou looke your Table-kniues be faire poliſhed, and your ſpoones cleane, then looke you haue two Tarriors, a more and a leſſe, and wine cannels of boxe, made according, and a ſharp gimlet and faucets: And when ye ſet a Pipe on broach, doe thus, ſet it foure fingers broad aboue the neather chine vpward a ſtaunt, & then ſhall the lees neuer ariſe. Alſo look ye haue in all ſeaſons Butter, Cheeſe, Apples, Peares, Nuts, Plums, Grapes, Dates, Figs and Raiſins, Compoſt, green Ginger, Chard, and Quince. Serue faſting, Butter, Plums, Damſons, Cherries, & Grapes: After meate Peares, Nuts, Strawberries, Huttleberries and hard Cheeſe: Alſo Blandrels, or Pippins with Carrawaies in Confects: after Supper roaſted Apples and Peares, with blancht powder, & hard Cheeſe: beware of Cow-creame and of Strawberries, Huttleberries, Iuncat for Cheeſe will make your Soueraigne ſick, but let him eate hard Cheeſe.

Alſo of diuers drinkes if their fumoſitiues haue diſpleaſed your Soueraigne, let him eat a raw Apple, and the fumoſitiues will ceaſe.

Meaſure is a merry meane, and if it be well uſed, Abſtinence is to bee praiſed when God therewith is pleaſed.

Alſo looke your compoſt be faire and clean, and your Ale fiue daies old ere men drinke it, then keep your houſe of office clean, and be courteous to anſwer to each perſon, and looke yee giue no perſon no paide drinke, for it will breed the ſcab.

And in the ſecond courſe, pottage ſhall be Iuſſell Charlet or Mertrus, with yong Geeſe, Veale, Porke, Piaeons, or Chickens roaſted with Pampuffe, Fritters, and other bakte meates after the ordinance of the Tooke. Alſo the Gooſe ought to be cut member to member, beginning at the right legge, and ſo forth vnder the right wing, and not vpon the ioynt aboue, and it ought to be eaten with gréene Garlike, or with Sorrell, or tender Vines or Verjuyce in Summer ſeaſon after the pleaſure of your Soueraigne: alſo yée ſhall vnderſtand that all manner of Fowles that haue whole féet, ſhould be raiſed vnder the wing and not aboue.

Of the knowledge which is required of the Marſhall and the Vſher.

THe Marſhall and the Vſher muſt know all the Eſtates of the Land, and the high Eſtates of a King with the blood Royall.

The Eſtate of a King. The Eſtate of a Kings ſonne, a Prince. The Eſtate of a Duke. The Eſtate of a Marqueſſe. The Eſtate of an Earle. The Eſtate of a Biſhop. The Eſtate of a Vicount. The Eſtate of a Baron. The Eſtate of the thrée chiefe Iudges and the Maior of London. The Eſtate of a Knight Bachelor. The Eſtate of a Knight, Deane, Archdeacon. The Eſtate of the Maſter of the Rolles. The Eſtate of other Iuſtices, and Barons of Checker. The Eſtate of the Maior of Calice. The Eſtate of a Doctor of Dininity. The Eſtate of the Doctor of both the Lawes. The Eſtate of him that hath beene Maior of London, and Sergeant of the Law. The Eſtate of a Maſter of the Chancery, and other Worſhipfull Preachers and Clarkes that be graduable, and all other orders of chaſte perſons and Prieſts, worſhipfull Merchants, and Gentlemen, all theſe may ſit at the Squires Table.

A Duke may not kéepe the hall but each Eſtate by themſelues in Chamber or in Panilion, that neither ſée other: Marques, Earles, Biſhops and Vicounts, all theſe may ſit at a meſſe: a Baron and the Major of London, and thrée chiefe Iudges, and the Speaker of the Parliaments, all theſe may ſit two or thrée at a meſſe: and all other ſtates may ſit three or foure at a meſſe: alſo the Marſhall muſt vnderſtand and know the blood Royall, for ſome Lord is of the blood Royall, and of ſmall liuelihood, and ſome Knight is wedded vnto a Lady of Royall blood, ſhe ſhall kéepe the Eſtate of her Lords blood, and therefore the Reyall blood ſhall haue the Reuerence, as I haue ſhewed you before: alſo a Marſhall muſt take heed of the birth, and next of the line of the blood Royall: Alſo he muſt take heed of the Kings Officers, of the Chancellor, Steward, Chamberlaine, Treaſurer, and Comptroller.

Alſo, the Marſhall muſt take héed vnto ſtrangers, and put them to worſhip and reuerence, for if they haue good cheere it is your Soueraignes honour. Alſo a Marſhall muſt take héed, if the King ſend your Soueraigne any meſſage, and if hee ſend a Knight, receiue him as a Baron, and if he ſend a Yeoman receiue him as a Squire, and if he ſend a Groome, receiue him as a Yeoman. Alſo it is no rebuke to a Knight, to ſet a groome of the Kings at his Table.

A true and approved Receit, for the right making of the beſt Ipocras.

TAke of Grains halfe a dragm, take of Cinamon 4. ounces, of Ginger, two ounces, of Nutmegges halfe an ounce, of Cloues and Mace of either a quarter of an ounce, bruiſe theſe well in a Mortar, and infuſe them in a gallon of white wine 4. or 5. dayes, the veſſell being cloſe ſtopt, then put to it a pound of ſugar, and a half, when the ſugar is diſſolued, put to it balf a pinte of Roſe-water, and as much milke; let it ſtand a night, and then let it run thorow in Ipocras Bagge, then may you put it into a fine new Rundlet if you purpoſe is péepe it, or if you ſpend it preſently, you may put it into certaine pots for the preent.

An excellent and much approved receit, for a long Conſumption.

TAke 8.10. or 11. white Snayles, and breake away their ſhells from them, then put them into a bowle of water for twelue houres, to clenſe themſelues from their ſlime, then take them from that water, and put them into an other bowle of running water for twelue howers more, then take them out, and put them into halfe a pinte of White Wine, and keepe them in it twelue houres, then take a quart of Red Cowes Milke; and put the Snayles out of the Wine into the Milk, and boyle the quart of Milke with the Snayles put into it, vntill it be boyld to a pinte, then put into it one ounce of Canded Sugar, and ſo giue the ſick party the ſame to drinke euery morning, and at foure of the clocke in the afternoone, but you muſt not let the ſick party eate or drinke any thing elſe for the ſpace of two houre s after they haue taken this Receit, and without all doubt, this being duely made and taken accordingly, will with Gods help recouer the party being very weak and farre ſpent in this long lingering ſickneſſe, and of my knowledge hath béene often approued, and is found an excellent Receit to cure the ſame diſeaſe.
