RESULTS
Two hours had fitted by. Isabella IN the
meantime, at side table, had made :; pun
ding. and Monsieur had brolled o smail s.eax A
for a customer in the restaurant Wnen 'nas
was cooked and sent off by the waitress,
Monsieur called for the puff paste. II was
brought. The ladies began to tell their disas-
trous experiences in trying to make pun paste.
and all concurred in anxiety to learn row 10
make that French wonder.
The dough was almost frozen. Monsieur
took it and laid it on the table, first dredging
the boards with flour. He rolled and doubled
it as before, repeating the operation dozen
or more times, then he rolled 1t out IN long
strip, cut some sections on the bias from the
ends, and putting them in long tin bake pan
brushed them over with yolk OF egg and water.
Mrs. Hodges-Is that glace!
Mons. PIT is doree. am gliding them.
He put them in the oven and took out the
filet de bnuf. 1t drew forth rapturous express
sions of delight from the whole GLASS; In less
than five minutes the bias sections of puff
paste were taken out of the oven. They were
only half an inch thick when they were placed
in the oven. In the process OF baking they
had pulled up to AN inch and halt.
They were in light flakes, and were deli
cious to the taste. The puff paste was voted
a perfect success. Then Monsieur proceeded
to cut out the paste in pattles with tins OF .
size tor the purpose. He had q whole stock
of them OF all sizes. He put one circle Of
paste on top of the other, and then with
smaller tin he cut through the top piece o
little circle about the size of silver dollar.
The whole were placed in bake pan, doreed,
and put in the oven. In the meantime the
oysters had been simmering in saucepan in
their own liquor on the fire. While the dufts-
we're baking Monsieur made white sauce by
rubbing flour into melted butter while on the
fire, and then adding about pint of the
JUICE OF THE OYSTERS
He seasoned it with nutmeg and pepper, no
salt, as the butter and oysters were salty. y
Then he dipped out the oysters and put them
N the white sauce, gave the pan toss, and
lifted it to the table. He took out the patties.
They were over two inches thick. Running g.
sharp, slender knife carefully around tho
mall circle of paste, he lifted it off the pattie,
iattened the inside with the handle, put in
hree or four oysters, replaced the small
.ircle of crust, and lifting up the dish, said:
"Oyster patties.
The enthusiasm of the ladies knew no
'ounds They all talked at once. They
anghed, they congratulated Mrs. Hodges and
Hiss Corson and each other. They took out
heir watches, three hours and half had
lided away. They declared they had learned
nough for one day, although all the dishes.
we're not yet finished. -Neao York Sun.
