Sweetbread Patties

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.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Heat the pastry shells in the oven.

  3. Prepare the sweetbreads and add a few mushrooms.

  4. Fill the heated pastry shells with the hot creamed sweetbreads.

  5. Use cream instead of milk for a better sauce.

Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).

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.
