7. Cutlets
of Salmon a la Maitre d’hotel.
Cut some slices of salmon into the shape
of chops. Put
them into a saute-pan with some clarified dripping
or butter,
pepper, and salt, and " toss " them, when dinner-time
is come,
over ' an equal fire. Drain the butter well,
and dish the
slices of salmon in a pyramid.
For salmon yon must not use any cream,
as this fish
is already heavy for the stomach. Put into a
stew-pan
three spoonfuls of brown sauce well reduced ;
add to it a
thickening of one egg, and refine with a quarter
of a pound
of butter, some salt, a little cayenne, the juice
of half a
lemon, and some parsley chopped very line ; work
the sauce
very fine, and use as wanted.
