NOTE: prepare 7 days in advance of eating! -- Wipe meat over with a damp
cloth. Mix seasoning ingredients together except for carrots, onions and
fresh herbs. Rub seasoning well into meat; then lay mean on bed of
seasoning. Leave in a cool place (preferably not refrigerated, though).
Repeat rubbing each day. On the seventh day, put the meat into a saucepan

hours, when it should be tender. Put cooked meat on a flat dish and cover
with a board. Set weight on top of board until meat is cold, when it is
ready to carve and eat.
