Salade Olga Wheat cakes. Sift together into a bowl one-half pound of flour and one teaspoonful of baking powder. Add one ounce of sugar, one ounce of melted butter, one egg and a little milk. Mix all into a medium thick batter. Bake on a hot griddle iron. Serve honey or maple syrup, and sweet butter separate. Breakfast rolls. Three pounds of flour, one ounce of salt, one ounce of sugar and two ounces of yeast. Scald the milk and pour it over the sugar, salt and butter. Melt the yeast in luke-warm water, mix with the milk, etc., and add half of the flour. Beat well, cover, and let raise. Then add the re- mainder of the flour and let it raise again until it is twice its original volume. Put on table, roll in shape desired, place on pan, and let raise again. Brush the top with melted butter, and bake. Anchovy salad. Put sliced lettuce on the bottom of a pickle dish. Place fillets of anchovies crosswise over the lettuce. Garnish all around with chopped eggs, beets and parsley. Season with French dressing. Poached eggs, sans gene. Place a hot poached egg on a heart of artichoke, cover with a slice of parboiled beef marrow. Serve with sauce Bordelaise. Navarin of lamb, printanier. (Lamb stew). Take three pounds of shoulder, or breast of lamb, and cut in pieces two inches square. Salt, pepper, and put in saute pan with a little fat or butter, and allow to roast until nice and brown. Then add a cup of flour and let same become brown. Add a cup of puree of tomatoes and enough hot water to cover the meat, and boil for ten minutes. Parboil three carrots and three turnips and cut in small pieces, and add to- gether with twelve whole small onions fried brown in butter, twelve small round potatoes, and a bouquet garni. Cook until soft, remove the bouquet garni, and serve with chopped parsley and fresh cooked peas on top. Duchess potatoes. Make dough as for potato croquettes. Roll on table with a little flour, and cut in the shape of a cork. Flatten and cut a cross on the top with a small knife, brush with yolks of eggs, put on buttered pan and bake in oven. By using a pastry bag with a star mould the tops can be decorated with the dough, in the form of a rose, in place of the cross. Salade Olga.
