19. Another Ragout of Cucumbers.
  The cucumbers must be pared, the inside taken out,
and then cut in pieces ; lay these in a dish singly, with
half a teaspoonful of vinegar and a little salt, for two hours,
turning them frequently; by this means the juice, which
is so cold to the stomach, will be drawn out of them ; then
press them in a cloth, and put them in a saucepan with
some butter; shake them over the fire ; add a pinch of
flour, and moisten them with vegetable broth ; let them
simmer on a slow fire till they are done enough, then
put in a thickening of yolks of eggs and a little milk ;
set them on the fire again, but not to boil.
