Eggs Princesse. Put some purée of fresh mushrooms in the bottom of small croustades, lay a poached egg on top, and cover with sauce Périgueux.
Chicken sauté, Hongroise. Joint a chicken and put in a sauté pan with two ounces of butter, season with salt and a little paprika, simmer for five minutes; then add a sliced onion and simmer slowly for ten minutes with the cover over the pan. Then add a cup of cream and cook for four minutes, and add one-half cup of cream sauce. Remove the chicken to a platter, pour the sauce over it, and garnish both ends of the platter with macédoine of vegetables.
Macédoine of vegetables. Macédoine is a mixture of vegetables, and may be obtained in cans, but is easily made at home. If the canned sort is used drain off the juice, put in casserole in cold water, bring to a boil, and then drain off the water, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for a minute or so. To make macédoine, use equal parts of carrots, turnips, string beans, cut in squares about one-quarter inch in diameter, and peas and flageolet beans. Boil each separately in salt water, and mix afterwards, season with salt and pepper and one ounce of butter, and simmer as above. Flageolet beans come in cans, or dry like dry peas. They may be omitted if desired.
Consommé Camino. Boil one-quarter of a pound of macaroni in salt water; when soft, drain, and cool in cold water. Then cut in small pieces about one-half inch in length, and serve in a quart of consommé. Serve grated cheese separate.
Fillet of bass, Menton. Cut four fillets of bass; and prepare some fish dumpling mixture. Spread some of the mixture over the fillets, and fold in half, place in buttered sauté pan, add a little salt and one-half glass of white wine, cover with buttered paper, and place in oven for fifteen minutes. Dish up on a platter and cover with white wine sauce.
Beans, Normandy. Soak two pounds beans over night, then put to boil with three pints of water, sliced carrot, a yellow turnip, an onion, and a bouquet garni, season with salt, and cook for an hour. Put two big spoonfuls of butter and a spoonful of flour in a pan, and make a creamy sauce by adding the water from the beans. Now fill a baking dish; first a layer of sliced potatoes mixed with minced onions, then the semi-cooked beans, then potatoes, and so on until filled. Then add half a glass of white vinegar and bake until the potatoes are done, by which time the beans will be done also.
