To Make Pomatums

For making pomatums, the lard, fat, suet or marrow used must be carefully prepared by being melted with as gentle a heat as possible, skimmed and cleared from the dregs which are deposited on standing. Take:

• Mutton suet prepared as above, one pound
• Lard, three pounds

Carefully melted together and stirred constantly as it cools.

• Oil of Bergamot, two ounces

Being added just after lifting the pomade from the fire.
