OF bread. When choosing sveetbreads
see that they are fresh and large.
Their color should be clear, and if
they are not to be used Immediately
they should be parboiled.
One of the best liked and perhaps
the commonest ways of serving this
dainty is in cream sauce in rame-
kins or on toast. Parboil, then cut
in bits, removing all of the connecting
tissue. To blanch, cook in a little
calculated water, a tablespoonful Of
vinegar to a pint of water is suffi-
cient. Then add them to a hot,
rich white sauce, well seasoned, and
serve.
Sweetbread SaIad.-Cut up a sweet
bread that has been cooked, mix
with an equal quantity of celery cut
in dice, season well, add mayonnaise
and serve on lettuce.
Sweetbreads and Peas.-This COM
bination seems to be especially happy.
Parboil two pairs of good sized sweet
breads with one sliced onion, bay
leaf and two or three cloves-saving
the water to be used in making the
sauce. Remove the fiber and pick
the sweetbreads to pieces, mix with
cupful of fresh mushrooms that
have been cooked in three tablespoon
fuls of butter for ten minutes. Add
a can of peas, drained of their liquor,
a cupful of rich milk, salt, pepper,
and grating of nutmeg. Thicker
with a tablespoonful each of butter
and flour, add the liquor strained, and
the sweetbread mixture. Serve in
timbale cases or on toast.
SWeetbread Sandwiches.-Cut some
cold boiled sweetbreads in thin
slices, season with salt, pepper
and finely chopped celery in may
onnaise, spread over the sweetbreads,
then on top put a thinly cut slice
of buttered bread.
