"You can make this very nicely by drying, powdering and mixing by repeated siftings the following ingredients:

• one quarter of an ounce each of powdered thyme,
• bay-leaf, and
• pepper;
• one eighth of an ounce each of marjoram and
• cayenne pepper,
• one half of an ounce each of powdered clove and
• nutmeg;
• to every four ounces of this powder add one ounce of salt, and keep the mixture in an air-tight vessel. One ounce of it added to three pounds of stuffing, or forcemeat of any kind, makes a delicious seasoning.
