Some people dislike the taste of raw egg, and would find it palatable
in other ways than beaten up with wine, or taken in a glass of
sweetened milk. Prepare a cup of coffee to the taste, with cream and
sugar, keeping it very hot until ready for the egg, which must be
beaten thoroughly in another cup, and the prepared coffee added by
degrees to the egg; drink it hot, and you will never want to take
coffee again without the addition of egg.
SALAD
LOBSTER SALAD.
From MRS. CHARLES PRICE, of North Carolina, Third Vice President,
Board of Lady Managers.
Lobsters are done when they assume a red color, which will only
require a few minutes hard boiling. Remove the skin and bones, pick to
pieces with a fork, marinate them, _i.e._, place in a dish and
season with salt, pepper and a little oil, plenty of vinegar and a
little onion cut up; then cover and let stand two or three hours. Cut
up hard boiled eggs for a border, line the bottom of the dish with
lettuce leaves, place the lobster on the dish in a ring. Mayonnaise
can be used if desired, but the lobster is excellent without it.
CHICKEN SALAD.
From MRS. A. M. PALMER, of New York, Alternate Lady Manager.
Ingredients: One fowl (boiled); one cucumber; two heads lettuce; two
beets (boiled).
