SWEETBREAD CROQUETTES. Take a pair of sweetbreads, lay in cold water for an hour to draw out blood. Then boil in slightly salted water 20 minutes, put into cold water, skin and remove all the membranes. Cut into small pieces. Make a rich cream sauce, 2 tbs. of butter to 1 of flour, rub smooth and add to 1 cup milk and cream. Cook rather thick, season with salt and pepper and add a beaten egg. It should be a thick mass. Add the sweetbreads and a little chopped parsley. Let stand over night. In the morning form into croquettes, roll in beaten eggs then in cracker crumbs. Do this twice. Fry in deep hot lard. Drain on paper and serve hot. May be served in patty shells or ramikins, in which case saute a few bread-crumbs in butter and sprinkle over the top and bake until brown. Mrs. P. M. Aurness.
