Another version of this dish is made by filling the savoury jelly-lined mould with chicken cream (made as for crème de volaille), setting it with more of the savoury jelly (which should be rather stiff for this purpose, allowing 1oz. of leaf gelatine to each pint of strong chicken stock), and filling in the centre with an oyster mayonnaise, garnishing it outside with bunches of seasoned watercress and sliced tomato. This dish is one that any intelligent cook can vary to any extent, as any meat can be used in this way.
