Lobster Sandwich.—Prepare some red or lobster butter by crushing the shell and feelers of a cooked lobster with an ounce or two of butter, till you get it all to a fine paste, adding gradually the coral if at hand, with a good seasoning of salt and coralline pepper, and gradually 2oz. more of butter. Then stir this over a slow fire till it reddens and clears, when you rub it through a fine hair sieve into iced water, on the surface of which it hardens. Now skim it off, melt it again in a warm basin, and work into it four more ounces of fresh butter, and leave it in a cold larder till firm and well coloured.
