BROILED PLOVERS. Oscar, Waldorf-Astoria.

Season with a pinch of salt and half as much pepper, and add a tablespoon of oil. Rub in the seasoning thoroughly, and place the birds on a broiler to cook for four minutes on either side ; then dress them on a hot dish with six pieces of toast, spread over a gill of maitre d'h6tel butter

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
