POULARDE ALEXANDRA Having larded the pullet with tongue and truffle, poach it. This done, remove the suprémes, and replace them by mous- seline forcemeat; smooth this forcemeat, giving it the shape of the pullet in so doing, and set to poach in the front of the oven. Now, coat the piece with Mornay sauce, and glaze quickly. Dish, and surround with tartlet-crusts garnished with asparagus- heads, cohered with butter; place a collop of the reserved suprémes
