Mock Terrapin

From MRS. MARGARET BLAINE SALISBURY, of Utah, Eighth Vice-President Board of Lady Managers.

Put in the chafing dish the dark meat of cold chicken, turkey or grouse, cut in small dice, with half a pint of cream or stock, and when it comes to a boil stir in the following mixture: two tablespoons of butter rubbed into a smooth paste with a tablespoonful of flour and the yolks of three eggs, a teaspoonful dry mustard, a little cayenne pepper and salt, all mixed with a little cream or stock; let simmer a few minutes (not boil) and when ready to serve stir in a large wine-glass of Madeira.

Wishing you the success you deserve in the accomplishment of this laudable project, believe me, Sincerely yours.
