Bread and Sausage Stuffing.-
Soak half a pound of stale bak-
er's bread 10 minutes in cold wa
ter, then wrap in a napkin and
press out all the water. Place
saucepan with two tablespoon
fuls of butter over the fire, and
when hot add one-quarter of
cup of fine minced onion. Cook
five minutes, remove and cool.
Then mix with one-half pound of
sausage meat, three sour apples
pared and cut in dice, salt and
pepper to taste( these ingredients
must be added with discretion, as
the sausage has already been sea-
soned), a tablespoonful of fine
minced parsley. one-half teaspoon
full of thyme and one egg. If the
sausage has had no sage in its
season a pinch may be added.
