Togli uno capretto minuzzato o polli piccioli smembrati, e friggili col lardo fresco e cipolle minuzzate, e erbe odorifere trite con zaffarano e tuorla d'ova, e distempera fortemente e mesta con ova, e metti tutto in uno vaso sopra la bragia, e volgi spesso fino che sia spesso: giongivi spezie abbastanza; coloralo con tuorla d'ova e fa' la forma de la pasta e rinchiudi tutto: fa' cuocere e mangia.
