Then take out and stuff with chicken mousse. Make chicken
mousse from the breast that is cut away from the chicken. Mount
that on top of the chicken; color part of the mousse with a light
orange coloring, then decorate with strips meeting in the centre
of the breast and going toward each side, waving the mousse
through a fancy paper tube; and in between each row of the mousse
put a strip of chopped truffles. Put a cover over the pan with
some water; put on top of stove to cook from ten to twelve minutes.
When done, place on a platter; remove the string; garnish with
parsley. Serve with a nice brown mushroom sauce all around,
as an entree for luncheon or dinner.

glaze. Serve on a decorated foundation of hominy with truffle or
hollandaise sauce in the centre.

minutes — well covered. When done, turn out and serve on a

Chicken Mousse with Olives a la Dana
Mousse de Poulet aux Olives, a la Dana
Select two large olives for each person; remove the pits care¬
fully so as not to break the olive — cutting the meat in a thin slice
beginning at one end and going to the other, all around, leaving
all the meat of the olive in one strip. Make a very nice chicken
mousse, put in a paper bag, and fill the olives. Cut out some
well-cooked creamy cold hominy with an oblong cutter; spread
the hominy heavily with the mousse of chicken. Put the stuffed
olives on a bias on the spread pieces of hominy; decorate around
with the mousse that has been tinted with orange coloring, and
encircle the olives with a thin strip of chicken mousse. Put on a
buttered pan in oven to cook from eight to ten minutes — well
covered. Serve with the sauce d’olives for luncheon.
