—Take the above quantity of blanched macaroni, place it in a sautoire on the fire, with three ounces of butter, tossing well until it has thoroughly absorbed the butter; then add five heaped tablespoonfuls of grated Swiss cheese, season with a tablespoonful of salt, a teaspoonful of white pepper, and the third of a saltspoonful of grated nutmeg, and pour in a gill of hot Béchamel sauce (No. 154). Toss all well together, while thoroughly heating for five minutes. No spoon or fork should be used for mixing, as it only needs tossing. Place it in a hot hollow dish or tureen, and send it to the table.
