This recipe from Rumpolt that describe smoking
meat to be kept. (Several others describe
smoking meat that is then cooked/ served
immediately).
Ochsen 11. Smoked stuffed tongue. Take a raw
Tongue and cut the meat out from the Skin/ slice
meat of the ox/ that is not fat/ also Pig meat
that is well softened (cooked to jelly?)/ one so
much as the other nicely small/ and that no water
comes in/ grind salt in a mortar/ and beat a
little pepper/ and take twice so much salt as
pepper/ and rub it with the hands/ before you it
stuff/ put it then into the tongues/ and tie it
tightly/ dont hang it in the chimney/ but in
smoke where no heat comes/ let it hang in there a
week or four/ like this the inside is nicely red/
and keep it for a year or two/ put not make in
summer but instead in the winter when it is cold.
And when you wish to eat it/ then let boil an
hour or two/ pull out/ and let become cold/ and
when you it wish to slice it/ then pull the skin
off/ as then you will see if you filled it firmly
or not. If you it filled that it so that it is
firm so let it be sliced/ if it is not hard/ then
give it whole on a table/ like this it is a good
meal.
