Improvements in the Treatment, Preparation, and Preserving* of Certain Alimentary Substances. I, John Henry Lock of 11 Hobury Street, Chelsea, in the County of Middlesex Gentleman do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows :— The object of this Invention is to provide food so cooked and prepared as to be suitable for invalids and others requiring such food, and at the same time to be ready 5 for immediate use. For this purpose I cook all kinds of suitable meats and poultry by roasting or other means advantageously without the use of water, and after cooking reduce these to a kind of paste by mincing or other means, and then pack this paste in tin or other vessels ready for use. 10 By this means I retain all the nutritive properties of the meat while providing a paste which is suitable either for immediate use or from which by the addition ot boiling water a highly nutritive soup or broth can be readily prepared. Dated this 9th day of June 1887.
