DEVILED as cooked in a famous San Francisco restau-

most people strongly. Two tablespoonfuls of flour was
braided into two tablespoonfuls of melted butter and
two-thirds of a cup of white stock was added to make
a sauce, into which was stirred smoothly the yolks of
two eggs, two tablespoonfuls of sherry, salt and pepper,
one-fourth cup finely chopped mushrooms, and a cup
of chopped crab meat. After cooking this three
minutes, a teaspoonful of finely chopped parsley✪ Deviled Crabs was
sifted over. The mixture was then cooled and the crab
shells, which had been washed and trimmed, were
brushed with melted butter, filled with the crab meat
and sprinkled with stale bread crumbs that had been
mixed with a little melted butter. Then the shells
were popped into a hot oven and baked a golden brown,
after having scored the tops in three creases w^ith a
case knife.
