1337d. GERMAN FRITTERS.
DIVIDE one pound of Brioche-paste into twenty-four equal parts;
next, mould these into small finger-shapes, and bake them of a very
light colour. These fingers must now be placed in a deep sautapan,
and a pint of cream, previously boiled with a stick of vanilla in it, is
to be poured over them, and they are to be allowed to soak therein
until quite cold; after which they must be bread-crumbed by being
first dipped in beaten egg, and then rolled in the bread-crumbs.
About twenty minutes before the fritters are required to be served,
fry them of a bright light colour, in heated hog’s-lard, shake some
vanilla sugar over them, and when neatly piled on a napkin, send to
table quite hot.
