Allinson, T. R. (Thomas Richard)
Vegetarian cooking
To each egg take 2 tablespoonfuls of cream or milk, a little chopped
parsley, nutmeg, pepper, and salt to taste, and a slice of hot
buttered toast. Butter the cups as in the last recipe, sprinkle well
with parsley, beat up the eggs, season with nutmeg, pepper, and salt,
and proceed as in "Sweet Creamed Eggs." Serve hot.
SAVOURY SOUFFLÉ.
4 eggs, 1 oz. Allinson fine wheatmeal, 1 gill of milk, 1 tablespoonful
of finely chopped parsley, 1 dessertspoonful of finely minced spring
onions, 1 oz. of butter, pepper and salt to taste. Proceed as in
Cheese Soufflé, adding (instead of cheese) the parsley and onion.
SCALLOPED EGGS.
1/2 dozen hard-boiled eggs, 1/2 pint of milk, 1 dessertspoonful of
Allinson fine wheatmeal, 1 oz. of cheese, 3 tablespoonfuls of brown
breadcrumbs, and 1 oz. of butter. Shell and quarter the eggs; grease a
shallow dish with part of the butter, and put the eggs in it. Make a
thick sauce of the milk, wheatmeal, and cheese, adding seasoning to
taste. Pour it over the eggs, cover with breadcrumbs; cut the rest of
the butter in little pieces, and scatter them over the breadcrumbs.
Bake till nicely browned.
SCOTCH EGGS.
5 hard-boiled eggs, 1 breakfastcupful of Allinson breadcrumbs, 1
Spanish onion, 1 teaspoonful of powdered sage, 1 dessertspoonful of
finely chopped parsley, 1 egg, 1 oz. of butter, pepper and salt to
taste, some oil, vege-butter, or butter for frying. Grate the onion,
melt the butter, beat up the eggs, and mix them together with the
breadcrumbs, herbs, and seasoning. Beat the forcemeat smooth, shell
the eggs, cover them completely with a thick layer of forcemeat, and
fry them a nice brown. Serve with brown gravy.
SPINACH TORTILLA.
4 eggs, 1 oz. of butter, a teacupful of boiled chopped spinach, lemon
juice and pepper and salt to taste. Sprinkle the lemon juice over the
spinach, and season well with pepper and salt, and fry it lightly in
the butter. Beat the eggs and pour them into the mixture, let the
tortilla set, then turn it with a plate, and set the other side. Serve
hot.
STIRRED EGGS ON TOAST.
4 eggs, 1 oz. of butter, pepper and salt, 3 slices of hot buttered
toast. Whip the eggs up well, add a dessertspoonful of water for each
egg, and pepper and salt to taste. Heat the butter in a frying-pan,
stir in the eggs over a mild fire. Keep stirring the mixture with a
knife, removing the egg which sets round the sides and on the bottom
of the frying-pan, and take the mixture from the fire directly it gets
uniformly thick. It should not be allowed to cook until hard. Place
the stirred eggs on the toast, and serve on a very hot dish. This
quantity will suffice for 3 persons.
