Vealettes. — Purchase veal cuts from the leg in slices as large as one's hand and about half an inch thick. On each slice lay a large tablespoonful of dressing made from seasoned bread crumbs, a beaten egg and a table- spoonful of melted butter. Roll up the slices, pinning with toothpicks to keep the dressing in. Put in a well greased bag, seal and bake about three-quarters of an hour. When done, thicken the gravy, pour over the veal and serve on a hot platter. A variation in vealettes is made by getting from the butcher two slices of veal and a slice of ham the same size. Put together like a sandwich with the ham in the center and skewer together. Trim the edges evenly and bake in a bag. When the veal is done take up on a hot platter, thicken the drippings remaining in the bag, add- ing enough hot water to make a good consistency. Veal Loaf. — Mince three pounds raw lean veal and a quarter pound of fine fat pork
