Method

  1. Open the cockles: scald them in their own liquor: add a little water when the liquor settles, if you have not enough: strain through a cloth, then season with every savory spice;
  2. and if for brown sauce, add port wine, anchovies, and garlick;
  3. if for white, omit these, and put a glass of sherry wine, lemonjuice and peel, mace, nutmeg, and white pepper.
  4. If for brown, burn a bit of sugar for colouring.
  5. It is better to have cockles enough, than to add water;
  6. and they are cheap.
