truffle, seasoning, 2 lambs' breads, 6 champignons, | gill AUemande sauce, clarified butter for frying. The Sauce : i gill tomato sauce, i table-spoonful Tarragon vinegar, i French gherkin, | oz. butter. Trim, blanch, and braize the lambs' breads with a good mirepoix, when done let cool and cut into fine dice. Chop the tongue, mushrooms and truffles rather finely, mix with the lambs' breads ; and season to taste. Heat up the AUemande sauce, put in the above ingredients, and let them get thoroughly hot, then spread it on a dish and let cool. Roll out the puff paste rather thinly, stamp out as many rounds as are required, using a 2|-inch paste cutter. Place a dessert-spoonful of the mixture (salpi- con) in the centre of a round of paste, on this put a slice of truffle, wet the edges and place a second round of paste on top ; press the edges together, and continue thus till the mixture and paste are used up. Egg them, and crumb them in a mixture of crushed vermicelli ajid bread- crumbs, and fry in clarified butter to a golden colour. Drain, dish up, garnish with fried parsley, and serve with a sauce made by chopping the gherkins finely, infuse with the vinegar, and add the tomato sauce ; boil up, skim, season, and send to table in a sauce-boat. 30 Recherche 'Entrees. Ris d'Agneau Braises en Caisses (Cold). (Lambs' Breads in Cases.) Blanch, press and braise 8 lambs' breads, let them cooL Make a demi-glace sauce flavoured with the reduced liquor from the braise, and add enough aspic to set it. Trim the breads to the size and shape of the souffle cases ; china or silver cases are best for this purpose. Make a short ragout of artichoke bottoms cut in fine shreds, and seasoned with mayonnaise cream. Put a small table- spoonful of this into each of the souffle cases. Upon this place a lamb's bread. Put the cases on the ice for a few minutes, then pour over just enough of the pre- pared demi-glace sauce to almost cover the breads. Again put them on the ice so as to set the sauce. Put a fancifully cut slice of truffle in the centre of each bread, decorate round the edge with cooked green peas, and lastly coat with a layer of well flavoured aspic jelly. Cannelons ^ la N6va.
