Savoury Pudding.
Put a pint of cream on the fire, and when it boils add 3 table-
spoonfuls of vermicelli cut small; let it simmer about 5 minutes;
add 3 eggs—both yolks and whites; beat all up together with a
little more cream, salt, white pepper, shallot and mushroom
peelings.
Line a mould with small pieces of cold cooked tongue, or
ham and truffles, and carefully pour in this mixture.
Bake, or steam, and when turned out serve with a good brown
sauce such as “à la Dreux” (see Grouse Fillets No. 2, under
Game), or “Demi-glace” (see Sauces for Meat), or “Fines Herbes”
(see Sauces for Fish).
