' Mince the artichokes, mushrooms, and tongue rather finely. Mix these with the truffles and put them in a stewpan with the white sauce. Stir over the fire till thoroughly hot and spread on a plate to get cool. Free the suet from skin and pass twice through a mincing machine. Make a smooth paste with this and the flour, adding a pinch of salt and enough water to bind. Roll out the paste and stamp out some twenty rounds by means of a paste-cutter. Wet the edges of half the number of rounds of paste, and place a teaspoonful of the prepared mixture in the centre of each. Cover each with another round of paste, close up the edges by pressing them down firmly, trim with a fluted paste-cutter a little smaller than the one first used. Range the rissolettes on a baking sheet about an inch apart from each other, brush over with beaten yolk of egg, and bake in a fairly hot oven for about twenty minutes. Dish up neatly on a hot dish containing a folded napkin or dish paper, garnish with parsley, and serve with a boat of hot piquante sauce. ABBREVIATED RECIPES. 1274.
