Potted Meat - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup meat, cooked (cooked ham, tongue, beef, poultry or game)
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    1 pinch cayenne
    1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
    1/4 lb butter, melted (more as needed)
Preparation
    Process meat to a paste (if using ham, use a quarter part of fat), removing any gristle or skin.
    Season with spices and moisten with a little melted butter.
    Pack closely in jars; place jars in steamer and heat for 1/2 hour.
    Press the meat down again and cover with hot melted butter.
    Store in the refrigerator.
    **Ham and tongue may be mixed with veal or chicken. Beef, game and fish are better alone.
