Eggs Bercy. Fry some small breakfast sausages and cut in pieces one inch long. Make some shirred eggs. When half cooked add the sausages and a very little tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper and finish cooking.
Broiled pig's feet, special. Take some boiled pig's feet, split, and remove the upper bones. Season with salt, pepper and olive oil, roll in fresh bread crumbs, and broil. See sauce below.
Sauce special. Two-thirds tomato ketchup, one-third tomato sauce, a little paprika, a little Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil and serve.
Boiled pig's feet. Roll two pig's feet very tightly together with cheesecloth, so they will lay straight when cooked. Put in vessel, cover with cold water, season with salt, whole black peppers, carrot, onion, and a bouquet garni. Boil until well done. If necessary to keep them after cooking, place in an earthern pot in their own broth.
Fried apples. Peel, core, and cut the apples in five or six pieces. Roll in flour and fry in swimming fat or lard. Serve on a napkin.
Icing or frosting, for glace cakes, eclairs, etc. One and one-half pounds of icing sugar, a pony of water or fruit juice, and the whites of two eggs. Mix and heat over slow fire, stirring continually with a wooden spoon. Do not let it boil. Flavor according to desire. For chocolate frosting add a little melted cocoa.
Cream puffs. One-quarter pound of butter, one cup of water, one cup of milk, four eggs and one-quarter pound of flour. Put the butter, water and milk into a sauce pan and boil. Remove from the fire and add the flour, mixing with a wooden spoon. Then add the eggs one by one, beating well. Dress them on a buttered pan, and about two inches in diameter. Moisten the tops with eggs, and sprinkle with chopped almonds. Bake in a medium oven for about twenty minutes, then slit one edge and fill with sweet whipped cream. Dust some powdered sugar on top and serve.
Chocolate eclairs. Same dough as for cream puffs. Dress them on a buttered pan in the shape of lady fingers, and bake in hot oven. Split at one side and fill with sweet whipped cream. Coat with chocolate icing. Pastry cream may be used instead of whipped cream, if desired.
Pastry cream. Pint of milk, one-half of a vanilla bean, one-quarter pound of sugar, three eggs and one ounce of corn starch. Mix the eggs, sugar and corn starch. Boil the vanilla bean and add to the eggs. Mix well with a whip, put on fire and keep stirring until thick. When cold use it for filling small cakes, cream puffs, eclairs, etc.
