Wants 10 Maize Chicken Cake.
VIII you please tell me how to make
chicken cake? A. M OR.
l cannot supply this recipe without a
rather clearer indication of just what you
mean. Chicken cake F." is unknown to me
byI that name. The nearest approach to it
is a sort of chicken shortcake have made
by baking biscuit dough in a large tin,
dividing it as would for strawberry short
cake and putting between the two thick
nesses a layer of chopped and seasoned
chicken-either boiled or roasted or fried
molstening this well with gravy or cream
sauce and serving all piping hot. It is an
extremely good way of using up small
pieces of cooked chicken and makes an ex-
cellent luncheon dish, especially If there is
enough gravy to pour around the short
cake. But this may not be what you are
seeking, and if any one knows chicken
cake with which | am unfamiliar / would
be glad to receive the recipe and print it

Ever since railway and steamboat cor

nuisance of soft coal fires and plausible
