Slice a large head of garlic, and put it into a wide-mouthed bottle, with half an ounce of cayenne, two teaspoonfuls of real soy, two of walnut ketchup, four anchovies chopped, one pint of vinegar, and enough cochineal to give it the color of lavender-drops.

Let it remain near the fire a month, shaking it frequently. When any is taken out, put in as much fresh vinegar. This is not only a very fine sauce, but a great preservative against infectious diseases, if taken freely.
