To make a pink-coloured PANCAKE.
BOIL a large beet root tender, and beat it
fine in a marble mortar, then add the yolks of
four eggs, two spoonfuls of flour, and three
spoonfuls of good cream, sweeten it to your
taste, grate in half a nutmeg, and put in a
glass of brandy; beat them all together half an
hour, fry them in butter, and garnish them with
green sweetmeats, preserved apricots, or green
sprigs of myrtle.—It is a pretty corner dish for
either dinner or supper.
