=Terrine de foie gras en aspic.= Use a jelly mould that will contain as much as six small individual moulds. Put a little melted, but not hot, meat jelly in the bottom, and set on cracked ice until it is firm. Cut some foie gras from a terrine with a spoon, and lay in the mould, then cover with a little more melted jelly, then another layer of foie gras, and so continue until the mould is full. Set in the ice box for an hour; and serve on a napkin, with parsley in branches.

=Consommé Palestine.= Add to hot well-seasoned consommé equal parts of peas, flageolet beans, and carrots and turnips cut in small round balls; and all boiled in salted water.

=Brésilienne salad.= One-third boiled fresh Lima beans, one-third sliced green peppers, and one-third celery cut Julienne style. Place in a salad bowl, separately. In the center put some French dressing. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and chervil.

=Fillet of flounder, St. Avertin.= Put four fillets of flounder in a pan, cover with water, add a spoonful of salt and the juice of a lemon, and boil for seven minutes. Then place on a platter, and cover with a pint of Hollandaise sauce to which has been added a spoonful of French mustard. Garnish with four or eight round potato croquettes.

=Roast tenderloin of beef, Berthieu.= Garnish the roasted tenderloin with stuffed cucumbers, stuffed olives, peas au beurre, and potatoes château. Serve sauce Madère separate.

=Potage Lord Mayor.= Put two pounds of veal bones in a roasting pan with one onion, one carrot, a little celery, leek and parsley in branches, and two ounces of butter. Roast in oven until nicely browned, then drain off the fat, put in casserole, add two fresh pig's feet, one soup hen, and three pounds of shin of beef, one bouquet garni, a handful of salt, and two gallons of water. Cook until the hen and beef are soft, when they may be removed. When the pig's feet are done take out the bone, the fat and the lean meat, so nothing is left but the skin. Cut the skin in small squares, or round pieces the size of a dime. Cut some carrots in the same shape, and boil in salted water until soft. Put one pound of chopped beef in a casserole, add the whites of six eggs, stir well, add slowly the strained broth, and bring to a boil. This will clarify it. Season with salt and Cayenne pepper to taste. Boil for fifteen minutes, strain through a cheese cloth into another pot, bring to a boil, and reduce slowly for half an hour. Mix two spoonfuls of arrow root and a cup of sherry wine well together, and let run slowly into the boiling broth. Boil again for ten minutes. Before serving add a glass of dry amontillado. The beef and the soup hen then may be used for salads, croquettes, or other purposes.
