Draw it to one side of the saucepan, add the flour, mix thoroughly, add one pint and a half of water and all the seasonings. Cover the saucepan and simmer continually until the chicken is tender, about one hour. Dish the chick- en, strain over the sauce, garnish the dish with triangular pieces of toast or pastry, dust with chopped parsley and serve. VEAL CUTLET Cut one cutlet into squares of two inches. Dust with salt and pepper, roll in flour and saute in a small quantity of Snowdrift. When the cutlets are brown on one side, turn and brown on the other. Serve plain or with Brown Sauce.

Simmer gently until it is tender. When done, remove the meat from the bones, rejecting the skin. Cut the meat into squares of one inch; put a layer in the bottom of a baking dish, then a layer of the diced potatoes and a dusting of salt and pepper, and so continue until the dish is full. Rub the Snowdrift and flour together; add one pint of the water in which the chicken was boiled; stir until boiling. Pour this over the chicken, dust with chopped parsley, cover with Snowdrift puff paste and bake in a moderate oven three-quarters of an hour. Blanched oysters or chopped mushrooms will greatly improve the flavor of chicken pie.

Serve the veal with a brown sauce made from the liquor in the pan.
