Vol-au-vent
Ingredients
Directions
Can be cut in any shape required, a large round being most often used. Roll out the puff paste one^ half inch thick ; turn a pie plate upside down on the paste, press it down to make a marking, and cut out with a sharp knife. Put two or three rims around the edge as you would a pie, only thicker ; place in a large pan on a paper; bake in a hot oven forty-five minutes. Fill with any kind of cream, meats, mush- rooms or oysters, or serve as a dessert, filled with stewed fruits covered with whipped cream.
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures. See the original page.
