Boudins of Pheasant à la Prinz Karl.—Prepare
some quenelle farce with pheasant, mix with it
about a sixth of its bulk of minced truffles, and let
it stand on ice for a little to set it; when firm take
off pieces the size of a small egg and with your well
floured hands give these an oval shape slightly
flattened at the sides (this is the real boudin shape),
being careful they all match in size and shape; now
poach in boiling water, as described above for
quenelles, for a few minutes, after which drain them
well and leave them till cold, when you dip them
into beaten egg and then into finely minced parsley
and cooked ham. Ten minutes before they are
wanted for table toss them over the fire in a well
buttered pan till perfectly hot but not coloured;
drain them well, dish neatly either on a fried
croustade of bread, or mashed potato, and serve
with a rich Sauce Madère flavoured with stock made
of the pheasant trimmings.
