This recipe was extracted from Good Things to Eat as Suggested by Rufus (1911) by Rufus Estes, page 28. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

CHEESE CROQUETTES— Cut one pound of American cheese into small dice. Have ready a cupful of very hot cream sauce, made by blending a tablespoonful each of flour and butter, and when melted adding a scant cup of hot milk. Stir until smooth and thickened. Add the cheese to this sauce, also the yolks of two eggs diluted with a little cream. Stir the whole and let it remain on the stove a moment until the cheese gets " steady." Season with salt, red and white pepper, and just a grating of nutmeg

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