906. SWEETBREADS, A LA PARISIENNE.
AFTER the sweetbreads have been scalded and pressed, let them be
larded in the following manner: one with shreds of very black truffles,
another with shreds of the tip of a red tongue, and the third with some
green stalks of parsley; braize them between layers of fat bacon, and
moisten with a wine mirepoix (No. 236). When they are done, dish
them up against a triangular croustade, garnished with a well-arranged
Parisian ragout (No. 204); stick an ornamental silver skewer gar-
nished with a double comb, a large truffle and a decorated quenelle, in
the centre of the croustade, and round the base of the skewer, stud a
border of crayfish-tails, slightly glaze the sweetbreads, and serve.
