water
To make authentic ship's biscuits, mix flour with tsp of salt. Add water a drop
at a time, and mix until you have a stiff dough. Roll out the dough on a board
sprinkled with flour to a thickness of about 1/3 inch. Cut the dough into
squares or circles. Use a fork to prick the tops of the biscuits. Bake in a 375
degree oven until lightly brown. Eat soon or they will grow hard as rocks. (to
"revive" them, place in microwave on high for 10 seconds)
Salt
Pork and Gravy
Slice one pound of salt pork thin. Freshen it by putting the slices in cold
water and bringing to a boil. Then dry the slices, slit the edges and fry to a
crisp. Make cream gravy with the drippings.
Beer

cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup beer
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

cornmeal consistency. Stir in beer, and knead lightly.

Roast
Goose
1
goose
1
apple
1
onion
water
Goose is simplicity itself to roast as it can only be spoiled by overcooking.
First remove giblets, rinse them, put into a small pan, cover with water, add
seasoning and simmer for one hour to produce stock for gravy or soup.
Rinse the body cavity with cold water and pat dry. Secure the wings against the
body with skewers and tie the legs together. Either stuff the neck end or simply
place a cut up apple and onion inside the body cavity. Place trussed bird on a
roasting rack, or small cake rack, inside a deep roasting pan, rub breast with
salt and place in a pre-heated oven at 350 degrees. After 30 mins. prick skin
along each side of the breast and cover pan tightly with foil. Allow 15 minutes
per lb., remove foil for last half hour of cooking time and use some of the fat
for roasting potatoes.
Lift bird carefully on to a carving dish and allow to rest for 20 minutes in a
warm place before carving. Pour fat into a large basin and allow to cool
completely before storing in the refrigerator.

fresh green mint, a lump of loaf-sugar, and some bits of fresh butter. Let it
