Let it stand for two hours in a cool place. Mix lightly with a mayonnaise and serve on lettuce leaves. Garnish the platter with slices of tomatoes.

Put a spoonful of this mixture into each round of paste, brush the edges with beaten egg and lay on another round of paste, pinching the edges together carefully that not a particle of the meat may escape.

A left-over of beef may be left for a day or two before serving again. It is better to see to the condition of veal twenty-four hours after cooking, especially in hot weather, and serve it as soon as convenient. Veal is a meat of but little flavor, and requires considerable seasoning, besides the richness of fat pork or butter added in the cooking. Brown sauce is the general accompaniment to veal at the first cooking. Save every spoonful of the sauce to use with it when warm- ing over. If there is no brown sauce, white sauce may take its place. Veal makes an excellent ragout, seasoned with onion juice and cayenne, minced and poured on toast for breakfast; in a salad or croquettes, it tastes very much like chicken. Add to it a few mushrooms and two or three spoonfuls of left-over sweetbreads, and you have most delicious rissoles. It is excellent combined with oysters in a scallop. When preparing it for a salad, be careful to reject all morsels of gristle n6 Left-Overs Kentucky Croquettes
