38 | Ox-Tail with Barley.
—Cut a small ox-tail into little pieces, wash well, drain them, then place in a saucepan with a quarter of an ounce of butter, fry for ten minutes on the hot stove. Moisten with three pints of consommé (No. 100); season with half a pinch of salt and half a pinch of pepper. Cook for one hour. Then add half a pint of printanier (No. 51), one tablespoonful of well-washed barley, and a teaspoonful of Parisian sauce. Cook for forty minutes, then skim the fat off, and a few moments before serving add one medium-sized, red, sliced tomato to the soup.
