No I have never tried it ....don t think I will.but if anyone brave enough to try dig in. It just goes to show what our ancestors would eat.
Hear is the receipe
Ingredients
1 oz butter nearly 1 pint of milk
1 table spoon chopped 1 table spoon Flour
parsley 2 onions
1 Cow-heel or Ox foot pepper and salt
Method(not for the faint harted)
If the hoof has not been removed put the foot in boiling water and let soak till the hoof will come off(the boiling water must be frequently renewed) then chop the foot in four pices wash blanche scrap put into a pot with just cold water enough to cover it simmer for 1 hour. Blend smoothly a tablespoon flour with a little cold water or milk stir into the stew still till boils for 5 mins then add the butter and parsley serve neatly with the sauce over. the liquor in which the foot was boiled will be strong jelly when cold. If it has benn boiled without onions it may be sweetened to taste and flavoured with lemon it is excellent for invalids or it can be used for soup or broth if savoury
Well what do you think ? Some receipe I have the book in front of me if anyone would like some more mouth watering receipes.
