JAPANESE EGGS
Hard boil the number of eggs required, and, after halving them,
remove the yolks, and mix them with a little butter (using 1
tablespoon to 6 eggs), pepper, salt, and a little tomato chutney or
Harvey sauce. Refill the halved whites with this, and use the eggs
to garnish 2 cups of boiled rice. Pour over all 1 cup of white sauce
or parsley sauce to serve.
GOLDEN ROD EGGS
Hard boil 5 eggs, take off the shell, and separate the yolks from
the whites, chopping the whites fine and pressing the yolks through
a sieve, keeping whites and yolks separate. Put 1 cup of milk in a
double boiler, and when it boils add to it 1 tablespoon of butter and
1 tablespoon of cornstarch which have been rubbed together, and when
the sauce has thickened season it generously with pepper and salt,
and stir into it the chopped whites of the eggs. While the sauce is
cooking prepare 5 rounds of toast, and place them on a hot dish. Cover
each piece of toast with a layer of white sauce, sprinkle this with a
layer of the yolks, then more of the white sauce, and the remainder
of the yolks, season with salt and pepper, and stand in the oven a
moment or two before serving.
FROTHED EGGS
Separate the yolks and whites of as many eggs as are required, putting
each yolk in its shell or in a separate dish. Beat the whites until
very stiff, and fill a well-buttered custard cup half full of the
white of egg; make a hole in the centre, sprinkle with salt, pepper,
and lemon juice, and drop a yolk in each cup. Put in a shallow pan
of boiling water with a cover on it, and when the eggs are set turn
out onto buttered toast. Garnish with parsley butter.
FRIED STUFFED EGGS
Hard boil 6 eggs and halve them carefully, removing the yolks. Put the
yolks through a sieve, and rub to a paste with 1 tablespoon of melted
butter, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup of cream or milk, using a little
at a time, so as not to use it all unless needed to make the mixture
of the right consistency for refilling the halved whites. Carefully
fill the places made vacant by the removed yolks, roll the half-egg
in beaten egg and crumbs, and fry in deep, hot fat. Serve with 2 cups
of white sauce, and add to it 2 tablespoons of diced pickled beets,
which makes the sauce pink.
This same effect may be had to some extent by simply using hard-boiled
eggs, frying them, and serving with same sauce or white sauce, to
which 1 tablespoon of capers has been added.
SWISS EGG TOAST
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter on a shallow or flat dish, and sprinkle
over it 1 1/2 tablespoons of grated cheese; then break into the butter
3 eggs, taking care not to break the yolks. Sprinkle well with salt and
pepper and 1 1/2 tablespoons of grated cheese mixed with 2 teaspoons of
finely chopped parsley. Bake in the oven until the eggs are set, then
cut each egg out round with a cutter, and serve on rounds of toast.
