Cassolettes à la Strasburg.—Have ready some
boat-shaped cases of cassolette pastry, garnish the
edges by means of bag and pipe with a little edge of
butter, dust this lightly with chopped lax or
coralline pepper as you please, place a tiny column
of pâté de foie gras (cut with a plain column cutter)
in the centre of each, and fill up the cassolettes with
a mixture of chopped olives, tongue, French gherkin,
apple, and the trimmings of the foie gras, all
seasoned with oil, vinegar, pepper, and salt, and
serve garnished with Julienne strips of crisped
celery, tossed in oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and
sprinkled with minced tarragon and chervil.
