pistachios for decoration. If a fresh pine-apple is used peel it thinly. A preserved pine- apple is, however, more suitable for this dish. Cut a small slice off the bottom, to make it stand firmly, and by means of a paste-cutter or sharp knife cut out the centre portion of the pine-apple. Pound the trimmings in a mortar, rub it through a sieve, flavour with a teaspoonful THE NEW CENTURY COOKERY BOOK 520 of maraschino, and keep till wanted. Cut the hollowed out pine-apple into half-inch slices (crossways), and fix them together in the original shape by spreading some confectioner’s custard between the slices. Place this in the centre of a Genoise border cake, either on a baking- sheet or better into a round silver dish. Beat up the whites of eggs to a stiff froth, add the sugar, and cover the outside of the pine-apple with it. Mix the remainder of beaten egg with the first puree, and with this fill up the centre of the pine-apple. Bake in a hot oven till nicely browned and hot through. Decorate the dish tastefully with strips of blanched and peeled almonds and pistachios. Serve hot with pine-apple syrup
