The recipe
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Fill a tin or earthen dish with the mixture and place it in another dish with a little hot water.
Bake until it neither browns nor bubbles.
Cool the dish on ice until perfectly cold.
Cut into slices half an inch thick, then into dice or fancy shapes with a vegetable cutter.
Place the pieces in a tureen and pour in boiling consomme gently.
Serve immediately.
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.
