Two tablespoonfuls Indian soy, 2 ditto walnut catsup, 1 dessertspoonful of salt, 1 teaspoonful cayenne pepper, 1 nutmeg (sliced thin), 1 doz. cloves, 1/2 oz. root ginger pounded, a little lemon peel, a small head of garlic divided into cloves, 1 pint vinegar, 3 oz. lump sugar.

Dissolve the sugar in a little of the vinegar over the fire, add the other ingredients; put all into a wide-necked bottle. It should stand for a month before using, and is better if shaken every day. At the end of the month pour off clear into bottles.
