This recipe was extracted from The thorough good cook (1895) by George Augustus Sala, page 209. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Eggs in Cases. Cut up a sheet of paper into pieces three inches square, turn up half an inch all round so as to form a kind of square case : there will then remain but two inches square in the inside. Take a small piece of butter, a pinch of fine bread- crumbs, a little finely- chopped parsley, spring onions, salt and pepper

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