SANDWICHES. TO TOAST BREAD. Bread is seldom properly toasted. A very common error m to toast it hurriedly, burning the outsides of the slices, and leaving the insides soft and moist. Whether toasted bread is to he used with various dishes mentioned in the preceding pages, or to be served by itself, cut slices from a stale loaf, about the third of an inch, or at most half an inch, thick. Toast these with a toasting-fork before a clear fire, constantly moving the bread, in order to brown it slowly and nicely all over. Toast it thus on both sides, making it crisp. If it is to be served as dry toast, set the slices upright to cool, then cut them in halves and put them into the toast-rack. STEWED CHEESE. 2 table-spoonfuls grated cheese. 4 table-spoonfuls cream. Cayenne pepper. i teaspoonful salt. 1 slice buttered toast. 1 egg. 1 oz. butter, i teaspoonful mustard. Let the butter melt in a saucepan, stir in the cream, then the cheese, and lastly the egg well beaten, with the season- ings. Simmer till the mixture is smooth, but not boiling; serve on toast very hot. TO BLANCH ALMONDS. This means to take the brown skins from almonds, and is done by pouring boiling water upon them. In a few minutes the skins become loose, and if rubbed with a cloth will slip off easily. SANDWICHES. Slices of bread and butter, j Cold meat! Mustard. | Pepper and salt
