Take off every bit of skin and cut the meat into pieces of as nearly uniform size as you can manage. Boil four eggs for twenty-five minutes and lay them in cold water for half an hour, then peel and cut into neat round slices. Cut stoned or stuffed olives into halves. Butter a mould or bowl well, and line with alternate rows of the egg-circles and the split olives, the rounded sides of the olives outward. Put a layer of the chicken into the mould, seasoning with pepper and salt; cover with cold and slightly coagulated jelly (aspic) ; set in a cold place for ten minutes; put in another layer of seasoned chicken, more aspic, and so on until the mould is full. Now and then add a few bits of chopped egg and an occasional caper. Set on ice, in warm weather, until you are ready to use it, when wrap a towel, wrung out in boiling water, about the mould and invert upon a cold platter.
