HISTORY OF SLUMGULLION
LATER CALLED MULLIGAN
the history of slumgullion seems to be that it came from the slums of
england before the turn of the centry. There was no recipe recorded because
back then very few new how to read or write. It was handed down to the kids
by showing them how to make it. There was no basic recipe , they just used
what they could find or had there was not much meat so if they had some
rats or mice or sparrows or pigions what ever they used it. If they lived
buy a slaughter house you can guess what they used. They would put the meat
in the water and added onion and salt to kill the oder of the meat cooking
, then they added some veg's and thickened it with flour when it was thick
they would serve it over potatoes or buy it self. Later in years it was
called in some areas MULLIGION and then it was served over mashed potatoes
or put in a shell pastry and called a mulligion pie. Just like the old
saying goes 5 and 20 black birds baked in a pie. They also used to put it
on toast or what ever they had.
