Take cold cooked salmon which may
have been left from a previous day and
some other fish or canned salmon to make
enough, and pick it into pieces of even
size without bones. Mix finely minced
bread and cracker meal in equal quanti-
ties. Butter a baking pan, cover the
bottom with the crumbs, place fish enough
to cover that, and plenty of crumbs again
on top.
Take soup stock and milk if to be in
plain style, or soup stock and white wine
if that way, enough to thoroughly moisten,
season with pepper and salt✪ Scalloped Salmon, Plain cr au Vin, pour over
the scallop and bake brown. Cut out
squares, place on the dishes as neatly as
possible, add a border of frizzed potatoes
lor decoration.

slices upon each other and shred them.
Fry almost white in fresh lard. Serve as
a garnish.
774— Grenadins of Veal, Napolitaine.
Small selected veal steaks, size of the
palm of the hand, larded with a few strips
of fat pork, baked in a quick oven, served
with sauce in the dish.
Slice the leg of veal for them and use
the trimmings in soup or stews. Draw
the lardoons through so that a dozen ends
will cluster in the middle of each grena-
din. Butter a pan, strew a very little
minced onion, salt and pepper; place the
veal close together; bake light brown.
Have some clear soup stock boiled down
to glaze and baste them with it while bak-
ing.
775— Sauce Napolitaine,
Mix grated horseradish in thin white
sauce, made by tnickening strong chicken
broth with white roux. Butter sauce di-
luted will answer the purpose ordinarily —
the horseradish is the chief ingredient.
776— Brochettes of Kidneys and Ham.
Slice up the kidneys that may have ac-
cumulated, and small pieces of ham, cut
them to one size as near as can be, and
not larger than a silver half dollar. Run
them on iron skewers✪ Brochettes of Kidneys and Ham, a slice of kidney
and a slice of ham alternately until
the skewers are full. Trim off corners
with a straight cut, lay in a pan and bake.
Serve in a spooniul of sauce in the dish,
pushing off the portion from the skewer
with a fork.
These may also be fried in hot fat and
served for breakfast; also breaded and
fried.
777— Sauce Claremont.
I cup vmegar.
I cup water.
4 yolks of eggs.
I tablespoon butter*
1 tablespoon salt.
Shred the cabbage fine, mix the yolks
well with some water, put everything
into a saucepan or into the sink of the
steam chest and stjr occasionally until it
reaches boiling point ; then keep it where
it will not boil. This makes a yellow sort
of cream dressing in the cabbage; but
boiling curdles the egg and would make
it noc so good. Add minced red pepper
if you have it✪ Sauce Claremont; some add sugar.
779— Hot Slaw Another Way.
The common hotel way of making hot
slaw is to put the shred cabbage into a
large saucepan with roast meat or bacon
fat and vinegar and stir it over the fire
until the cabbage is partly cooked and
the vinegar has dried out, making a sort
of imitation of sour krout ; it is cheap,
