CONSOMMÉ PRINCESS

Add to ConsommÉ small green peas and tiny cubes of cold cooked breast of chicken. (For recipe for ConsommÉ see Page 149.)

BROWNED CRACKERS

Split crackers, arrange them in a dripping pan, place in a moderate oven until crisp and delicately browned.

LAMB CHOPS BREADED

Prepare loin or French chops as for broiling. Dip in crumbs, egg (diluted with cold water, allowing two tablespoons water to each egg), add in crumbs, and fry in deep hot Cottolene six to eight minutes. Drain on brown paper and spread with MaÎtre d'HÔtel Butter.

NEW POTATOES WITH CHIVE SAUCE

Scrape off the skin, remove the "eyes" with a sharp pointed knife and scrub them with a vegetable brush, rinse thoroughly and put in sauce pan, add boiling water to cover; season with salt, cover and cook until soft, drain. If small, serve whole; if large, cut them in one-half inch cubes and reheat in Chive Sauce.

CHIVE SAUCE

To Cream Sauce (see Page 151) add one tablespoon finely chopped Chives.

GREEN PEAS

Cook peas in boiling water. Use just enough water to prevent them from burning. Add salt fifteen minutes before removing them from fire. Season with butter and pepper.

JUNE SALAD

Remove stones from red and pink Ox-heart cherries and cut them in halves lengthwise. Remove the pulp from oranges and cut in inch cubes; peel bananas and cut in one-half inch cubes. Use equal quantities of each and marinate with French Dressing No. 2. Serve in nests of heart lettuce leaves and mask with Mayonnaise.

FRENCH DRESSING No. 2
¼ teaspoon salt.
4 tablespoons Olive oil.
1/8 teaspoon paprika.
2 tablespoons lemon juice.

MAYONNAISE DRESSING
½ teaspoon salt.
Few grains cayenne.
Yolks 2 eggs.
1½ tablespoons lemon juice, or
¾ tablespoon each of vinegar and lemon juice.
¾ cup Olive oil.

As mixture thickens, add a teaspoon lemon juice or vinegar. Continue adding oil and lemon juice or vinegar alternately until all is used, stirring constantly. All ingredients should be very cold. Set bowl in which dressing is made in a bowl of crushed ice.

CHERRY PIE

Pick over, stem and pit cherries (there should be two cups when pitted). Heat to boiling point in their own juice, then chill them. Line a perforated pie pan with Rich Paste, moisten the rim with cold water and lay around a strip of pastry one inch wide, press lightly. Brush the pastry over with slightly beaten white of egg. Sweeten cherries to taste, add a few grains of salt and turn into lined pie pan. Sift over two tablespoons flour, moisten rim and cover with top crust, flute the edges and bake in hot oven for the first ten minutes, then reduce heat, continue baking for twenty-five minutes. Serve hot with cheese, cut in strips one-fourth inch thick and wide by two and one-half inches long.

ICED TEA

Make tea and chill. Serve in glasses filled with crushed ice, adding (if desired) one tablespoon lemon juice to each glass. Pass fine granulated (Bar) sugar. Place each glass on a small plate.
