When there is as much froth as wanted, put what cream remains in a deep china dish, and pour the frothed cream upon it, as high as it will lie on.
Seite 16 - When you have kept two or three ribs of beef till quite tender, take out the bones, and skewer it as round as possible (like a fillet of veal) ; before they roll it, some cooks egg it, and sprinkle it with veal stuffing. As the meat is more in a solid mass, it will require more time at the fire than in the preceding receipt : a piece of ten or twelve pounds weight will not be well and thoroughly roasted in less than four and a half or five hours.
Seite 283 - ... suddenly into hot water to take off the syrup that hangs about it ; put it on a napkin before the fire to drain, and then do some more in the sieve.
Seite 114 - Prepare the patties as in the last receipt. Take a hen lobster already boiled ; pick the meat from the tail and claws, and chop it fine ;• put it into a stew-pan, with a little of the inside spawn pounded in a mortar till quite smooth...
Seite 7 - Soak them in cold water, wash them well, then put them into plenty of boiling water, with a handful of salt, and let them boil gently till they are tender, which will take an hour and a half, or two hours ; the surest way to know- when they are done enough, is to draw out a...
