Game Souffles, to use up Cold Game or Chicken—Two ways. (Isa. Emslie. 1891.) No. 1. A dry baked soufflé of following sauce mixed with pounded meat:— 1 oz. fresh butter warmed; cook in it a dessertspoonful of flour; next add ½ pt. of white stock; to cook 15 minutes; stir it; flavour with salt, pepper, a grate of nutmeg, and a table-spoonful of cream. This must cool before you add the pounded game (½ lb.). Work all well in, then add the yolks of 2 eggs, one at a time, and just before baking, the whipped-up whites of 3. Put into a soufflé dish, and bake ½ hour. No. 2. The same mixture done as steamed soufflés. These are best turned out of dariole moulds, and served with sauce round them. A dessertspoonful of sauce will be enough to make them. I add dessertspoonful of cream, 2 yolks, 2 whipped whites. Steam ½ hour, dish them on a brown, well-flavoured sauce. Mushroom flavour improves both recipes much.
