Veal and Ham Pates.
Mince cold cooked veal and ham in the
proportion of 2/3 veal and 1/3
ham. A few mushrooms are a pleasing addition. To each cup of the mixture
allow a tablespoonful of fine crumbs; season highly with salt, a dash of
cayenne, a little lemon juice, and a teaspoonful of catsup. Wet up with
stock, or butter and water, and heat in a vessel set in another of hot
water, to a smoking boil. Take from the fire, stir in a beaten egg and a
glass of sherry, and fill in shells of pastry that have been baked
empty. The shells should be hot when the mince goes in. Set in the oven
for 2 or 3 minutes, but the mixture must not cook.
