Ingredients
- one pound of fresh mushrooms
- one tablespoonful of butter
- one tablespoonful of flour
- one cupful of stock
- a dash of cayenne
- one half onion sliced
- one half cupful of bread crumbs
- one quarter of an inch thick
- salt
- pepper
- cayenne
Directions
Take off the stalks from one pound of fresh mushrooms, peel the cups, using a silver knife, and drop them into cold water to keep them white (if exposed to the air they discolor). If they have to stand for some time put a little lemon-juice in the water; scrape the stalks, chop them and put them into a saucepan with one tablespoonful of butter and one half onion sliced; cook slowly for ten minutes, then add one tablespoonful of flour and cook that five minutes; add one cupful of stock and one half cupful of bread crumbs; season with salt, pepper, and a dash of cayenne. Fill the cups of the mushrooms with this mixture; sprinkle with crumbs and place them on circles of toasted bread one quarter of an inch thick and the size of the mushroom. Bake in moderate oven for fifteen minutes.
