The Pope on Boiled Eggs.

New York World: ] am surprised to
see a question raised as to whether the
pope meant hard boiled or soft boiled
eggs. What he said was that your eggs
should be hard boiled or nearly
raw
In saying this he vas exactly in line
with the teachings of Brillat-Savarin
and all the great cooks that eggs
should be boiled either not more than
two minutes or not less than twenty,
1t is Il fact known to every expert in
the chemistry of cookery that All egg
boiled two minutes is digestible, and
so Is an egg boiled twenty minutes,
but that II boiled five or ten min
utes is as lcathe, to the digestive or
gans.
All those superb dishes which the
French make out of hard boiled eggs
are no only palatable, but digestible,
and they are SO because the eggs are
boiled for twenty minutes.
The pope was not speaking eX-ca-
thedra, hut he was irfallibly right
when he entplned us to have our eggs
hard boiled or nearly raw"
