Spaghetti Baskets with Shrimp Mousse a la Ericsson Hammond Corbeilles de Spaghetti, Mousse de Crevettes, a la Ericsson Hammond Cook spaghetti in water and some salt — soft, but not too well done; cut with the fluted biscuit cutter round slices of raw turnips; put toothpicks in all around the edge — an odd number from fifteen to seventeen, according to the size of the turnips; thread the spa¬ ghetti in and out in a basket style until the toothpicks are all covered. Put alternately small peas and truffles same size on the point of the toothpicks to cover them, then fill with shrimp mousse [see re¬ cipe: Shrimp Mousse]. Put in a pan with a little hot water, cook about eight to ten minutes — well covered. Have ready some han¬ dles cut from green pepper that has been left in ice water to get crispy; put a handle in each basket. Arrange on a paper doily, with fried oyster crab in the centre and around. Serve with a newbourg sauce
