1204. EGGS, WITH NUTBROWN BUTTER.
PUT four ounces of butter into an omelet-pan over the fire; as soon
as it begins to fritter, break the eggs in to it, without disturbing the
yolks; season with pepper and salt; fry the eggs over the fire for five
minutes, and then remove them gently on to their dish. Next, put
two ounces more butter into the pan, fry it of a brown colour, then
add two tablespoonfuls of French vinegar, boil the whole together for
two minutes, pour it over the eggs, and serve.
