Processing

Coarsely crush the ingredients and place them inside the abdomen of a male pig; if one pig’s abdomen is not large enough to hold all the ingredients, use two. Sew the opening shut with thread. Simmer in a sandpot with wine and vinegar until the contents are thoroughly softened and mushy, then remove. Chop the pig’s abdomen into small pieces, mix with the herbs, and grind finely in a mortar and pestle. Dry in the sun, then grind into a fine powder. Mix evenly with musk, and use the decoction to form pills the size of millet grains.
