"Browning"
- 4 ounces sugar
- 1 ounce of butter
- 1 pint of red wine
- 1/2 an ounce of Jamaica pepper
- 6 cloves
- 4 small onions.
- 2 -3 blades of mace
- 3 teaspoonful of mushroom ketchup

Take four ounces of very fine white sugar, put it in a clean iron frying-pan, with one ounce of butter; set it over a clear fire, and mix it very well together all the time; when it begins to be frothy and the sugar is dissolving, hold it higher on the stove, and have ready one pint of red wine. When the butter and sugar is of deep brown, pour in a portion of the wine, stir it well together, add more wine, and keep stirring it constantly; then add half an ounce of Jamaica pepper, six cloves, four small onions, peeled, two or three blades of mace, three teaspoonful of mushroom ketchup, a little salt, and the rind of one lemon. Boil the whole mixture slowly for ten minutes, then pour it into a dish, when cold scum it carefully and bottle for use.
