You
will do well to quicken it with some Verjuyce, or juyce of Orange; or with
some yolks of Eggs and the juyces, if the broth be not over-strong.
Green-pease in the season do well with the Potage. You may put in, near the
beginning, some bottom of a Peppered Pasty, or of a loaf of bread.
WHEATEN FLOMMERY
In the West-country, they make a kind of Flomery of wheat flower, which
they judge to be more harty and pleasant then that of Oat-meal, Thus; Take
half, or a quarter of a bushel of good Bran of the best wheat (which
containeth the purest flower of it, though little, and is used to make
starch,) and in a great woodden bowl or pail, let it soak with cold water
upon it three or four days. Then strain out the milky water from it, and
boil it up to a gelly or like starch. Which you may season with Sugar and
Rose or Orange-flower-water, and let it stand till it be cold, and gellied.
Then eat it with white or Rhenish-wine, or Cream, or Milk, or Ale.
PAP OF OAT-MEAL
Beat Oat-meal small; put a little of it to milk, and let it boil stewingly,
till you see that the milk begins to thicken with it.
