RECIPE

 

  27. Finaciere pour Vol-au-vent.

Cut up in small pieces a cooked chicken, and put them
into a smooth sauce with some mushrooms, sweetbreads,
forcemeat-balls, cocks'-combs and cocks'-kidneys. When you
have to boil a fowl so as to garnish the finaciere, use the
liquor to make the smooth sauce, with a little clarified gravy
and the juice of mushrooms.
