NOVA SCOTIA CANAPES
Cut white bread in one-third inch sHces; stamp out with heart-
shaped cutter; spread both sides thinly with butter, brown them
deHcately in the oven. Mince Nova Scotia smoked salmon and
moisten with Mayonnaise or Boiled Salad Dressing. Spread each
heart with mixture, dispose a dainty border of finely chopped white
of egg around each and tip it off with a sprinkle of the yolk pressed
through a sieve. Do not cover the salmon entirely with the egg.
Arrange canapes on small plates covered with a lace paper doily;
garnish each with a spray of parsley and serve as first course.
PAN BROILED FILLETS OF BEEF
Have fillets of beef cut one and one-half inches thick; shape in
circular forms. Broil ten minutes in a hissing, well-buttered frying
pan, turning every ten seconds for the two minutes, that the surface
may be seared thoroughly, thus preventing the loss of juices. Turn
occasionally afterward. When half done season with salt, pepper,
reduce heat and finish cooking. Arrange on hot serving platter and
spread generously with soft butter. Pour over Sultana Sauce. (For
recipe see Page 61.)
CARLSBAD POTATOES
Wash and pare one dozen small, uniform-sized potatoes; soak
one hour in cold water to cover. Drain, put in stew-pan and cover
with one quart of boiling water. Add two tablespoons butter and
