Mutton chops, Daumont. Bread four mutton chops and fry in a flat saute pan. Dish up on a long platter, and garnish with artichoke bottoms filled with cauliflower. Pour sauce Perigueux around the chops.
Artichokes filled with cauliflower. Remove the leaves and trim the bottoms of four cold artichokes. Cut in four a boiled and well-seasoned cauliflower, squeeze out the water, and use to fill the artichoke bottoms. Cover with a little thick cream sauce, sprinkle with grated cheese, place small bits of butter on top of each, put on a buttered pan with a spoonful of bouillon, and bake in the oven.
Potage Kroumir. One quart of puree of tomato soup mixed with one pint of consomme tapioca.
Aiguillettes of sole, mariniere. Take the four fillets from one sole and lay them flat in a buttered pan, sprinkle with three chopped shallots, season with salt and pepper, add one-half glass of white wine, one-half cup of stock or water, cover with buttered paper, and bring to a boil on top of the stove. Then put in oven and cook for about seven minutes. Put the fillets on a platter, and reduce the broth until nearly dry. Then add two cups of white wine sauce and boil for a minute. Bind the sauce with the yolk of an egg mixed with a spoonful of cream, add a little chopped chives, and pour over the fish.
Chicken saute, Montmorency. Joint a chicken, season with salt and pepper, put three ounces of butter in a saute pan and saute the chicken. When done remove the chicken to a platter, and put in the pan one cup of brown gravy or sauce Madere, and one can of French mushrooms. Boil for a few minutes. Then pour over the chicken. Garnish with croustades filled with small French peas.
Croustades. One cup of flour, one cup of milk, the whites of three eggs, a teaspoonful of olive oil, a teaspoonful of corn starch, and a little salt. Mix well and strain. Keep the croustade iron very hot in swimming lard. Dip the iron in the dough for a few seconds, then dip in the swimming lard, coated with the dough, and fry until a nice golden color. Take out, and when cold the croustades will be very crisp. Croustade irons can be obtained in any first-class store.
