Chicken Croquettes Mince chicken enough to make two teacupf uls ; sea- son with half teaspoonful of salt, and a pinch of pep- per; add one teacupf ul of broth in which it was cooked, three eggs, the juice of a lemon, and a large teaspoonful of cream, or melted butter. Roll in eggs and biscuit crumbs, and fry in boiling lard. If the chicken broth is not to be obtained, substitute boiling water and another tablespoonful of butter or cream. Baked Chicken In the vessel in which the fowl is to be parboiled, have ready one quart of boiling salted water, using a teaspoonful of salt. Wash the fowl in weak soda water, wiping carefully inside and out. Place in the boiling water and cook slowly until quite tender, that is, until the joints separate easily, but not until it will fall to pieces. Remove it from the boiler, place in a hot oven, and brown quickly. With this baked chicken serve a dressing made as follows : Break into a bowl three cold biscuits, three cornmeal muffins (or same quantity of egg bread), and three crackers, or three slices of lightbread. Pour over this the stock in which the fowl was boiled. If this is not enough to moisten the bread thoroughly, use sweet milk, or boiling water and a small lump of butter. Let stand ten minutes or until it softens. • THE NEW ANNIE DENNIS COOK BOOK 155 Dressed Chicken Cook as many chickens as may be needed until very tender, in water enough to have one teacupful of broth
