Anchovy Croustades Recipe

Have ready rounds of bread, fried and cooled; spread these with anchovy purée and curl upon each an anchovy, drained from oil and wiped dry; fill in the centre with sifted yolk of egg, and with a bag and very small star tube pipe stars of anchovy purée around the edge of the bread. If the anchovies can be separated easily into lengthwise fillets, use a single fillet for each croustade.
