1210. NOUILLES A LA PALERME.
MAKE three-quarters of a pound of nouilles (No. 1367), parboil them
in water with a pat of butter and a little salt for about ten minutes;
then drain them on a sieve, and afterwards put them in a stewpan
with a pint of chicken-broth, a pat of butter, a little grated nutmeg,
mignonette-pepper and salt; place a circular piece of buttered paper
on the top, put the lid on, and then set the nouilles over a slow fire to
boil very gently until the whole of the broth has been absorbed. Next,
add a gill of cream, four ounces of grated Parmesan cheese, two pats
of butter, and a small piece of mace; toss the whole well together
over the fire, and then pile them up in the centre of a border of
croûtons previously stuck round the bottom of the dish; shake some
vermicellied yolks of eggs, and some grated Parmesan cheese over the
surface, put the entremets in the oven to be baked of a fine bright-yellow
colour, and send to table.
