Souffle of Chickens a la Creme. This dish is made of the remnants of roasted chickens. Take off the white flesh and mince it very small, pound it in a mortar with a little Bechamel (p. 327), a good lump of fresh butter, and salt and pepper ; with this mix the yolks of four eggs. Strain the whole through a tammy, or a hair-sieve ; then beat the whites of five eggs

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