PICKLE SAVOURY
Spread any savoury sauce and then cream cheese on oblong pieces of
bread, and arrange on this thin slices of small sour pickles in a
neat row, lengthwise. Sprinkle with paprika.
STUFFED OLIVE SAVOURY
Arrange on squares of bread spread with tomato or any tart sauce
strips of riced yolk of hard-boiled egg; form squares by placing
them both ways of the bread, and in each put a ring of the white of
hard-boiled egg sliced, and fill the centre with a slice of pimola
or any other stuffed olive.
CAPER SAVOURY
Make same as the above using capers to fill the egg rings.
TOMATO MAYONNAISE SAVOURY
Chop tomatoes and mix with them a thick mayonnaise, either plain or
flavoured with herbs. Spread on shaped pieces of bread, and garnish
with thin rings sliced from green peppers.
TOMATO SAVOURY
Cut rounds of bread the size of the tomatoes to be used and toast
one side; then butter the other side and arrange on each a slice
of tomato, dredge with salt, pepper, and dry mustard, sprinkle with
mushroom catsup or walnut catsup, and set under the burners of a gas
stove for five minutes or until heated but not softened. Garnish with
watercress to serve.
LIPTAUER SAVOURY
Spread shaped pieces of bread with "Liptauer cheese" and garnish with
slices of pickle.
SWEET PIMENTO SAVOURY
Toast fresh bread slightly, cut into shapes and butter one side, and
on this arrange a trimmed piece of canned Spanish pimento sprinkled
with celery salt, and set under the gas flame of a gas stove for five
minutes to heat.
ROUNDS OF TOAST
To make rounds of bread or toast take an empty tin the size required
and press it firmly into a slice of bread, thus cutting the round
evenly and neatly.
Cutters for cutting vegetables into fancy shapes are convenient
for savouries.
One farmer said to me, "You cannot live on vegetable food,
for it furnishes nothing to make bones with;" and so he
religiously devotes a part of his day to supplying his
system with the raw material of bones, walking all the
while he talks, behind his oxen, who, with vegetable made
bones, jerk him and his lumbering plow along in spite of
obstacles.
I have found repeatedly of late years that I cannot fish
without falling a little in self-respect.
Henry David Thoreau.
SANDWICHES
The recipes given under Savouries can also be used in making
sandwiches, and originality can have full play here as in the making
of dainty and appetising savouries.
SAVOURY BUTTER SANDWICHES
Use unsalted or slightly salted butter, and with a silver knife press
into it any flavour desired,--onion juice, paprika, various sauces,
