Lamb chops, Beau-sejour. Make a risotto, and put in small buttered timbale moulds. Use one timbale to garnish each two broiled lamb chops. Pour some tomato sauce over the chops.

French sponge cake (Genoise legere). Put six eggs and four yolks into a basin with half a pound of sugar, and whip over a slow fire for about fifteen minutes, but do not let it become too hot. Then take off the fire, and continue beating until cold. Then mix in lightly half a pound of sifted flour, a quarter of a pound of melted butter, and some vanilla flavoring. Put in buttered moulds, and bake in a rather cool oven for over half an hour. When cold glace with white frosting, and decorate the top with candied fruit.

Shrimp soup, family style. Add to one quart of fish broth one pound of picked shrimps, and bring to a boil. Then add one pint of boiling cream, season with salt and pepper and chopped parsley, add one-half cup of broken saltine crackers, and two ounces of sweet butter. It is ready to serve when the butter is melted.

Fillet of turbot, Bagration. Put four fillets of turbot in a buttered saute pan, season with salt and pepper, add one-half glass of white wine and one-half cup of fish broth, cover with buttered paper, and put in oven. When done, remove the fish to a platter. With the trimmings of the turbot make a fish forcemeat. Mash the trimmings well in a mortar, pass through a sieve, add one egg, season with salt and pepper, make into small round balls, and boil in fish broth for three minutes. Put these fish balls into white wine sauce, pour over the fish, and serve hot.

American gugelhoff. One pound of flour, one-half pint of milk, one ounce of yeast, four eggs, three ounces of sugar, six ounces of butter, two ounces of Malaga raisins, and the rind of a lemon and a pinch of mace for flavoring. Have the milk luke-warm, dissolve the yeast in it, add all the other ingredients, and mix to a batter. Put into a basin, cover with a cloth, and allow to raise for about two hours. Butter the moulds well, sprinkle them with coarse-chopped almonds, fill the moulds half full with the raised dough, allow to raise until the moulds are about three-quarters full, and then bake in a medium oven.
