Directions

1

Clean the brain, removing the red membrane and clots of blood if there are any. Soak in cold salted water one hour. Then put them into one pint cold water with tablespoonful lemon juice and one-half teaspoonful salt. Bring to boil as soon as possible, boil gently ten minutes then plunge into cold water until wanted. Dry gently on a soft cloth ; cut into sections con- venient for serving ; roll each in fritter batter, which should be made a trifle stiffer than for the other dishes. Drop into'hot fat and fry a handsome brown. Drain each piece on clean brown paper in a warm oven before serving. Have ready some stalks of parsley washed and dried. Plunge these into the hot fat for one minute until they become crisp, but do not let them lose their color. Serve on a folded napkin, dressing with the crisp parsley.
