—— au gratin.—For this arrange the veget-
able (either freshly cooked or left from a previous
meal) on a buttered fireproof china dish, pour over
it sufficient liquefied butter to moisten it nicely, dust
it lightly with freshly ground black pepper and
some grated Parmesan cheese; have ready equal
parts of freshly grated and sieved white breadcrumbs
and grated Parmesan, and strew this liberally over
the dish, moistening it well with liquefied butter,
repeating this strewing, if necessary, to cover the
cauliflower well, and bake till browned.
