Ingredients

  • 3 slices of bread
  • 1 tablespoonful of oil
  • 9 slices of bread
  • 1 tablespoonful of minced lemon-peel
  • 2 tablespoonfuls of juice
  • 12 anchovies
  • 2 persons
  • 2 dozen anchovies
  • 6 good-sized apples
  • 6 persons
  • mace
  • cayenne
  • nutmeg

Directions

1

_Ingredients._—Toast 2 or 3 slices of bread, or, if wanted very savoury, fry them in clarified butter, and spread on them the paste made by recipe for potted anchovies. Made mustard, or a few grains of cayenne, may be added to the paste before laying it on the toast.

2

ANCHOVIES, Fried.

3

_Ingredients._—1 tablespoonful of oil, ½ a glass of white wine, sufficient flour to thicken; 12 anchovies. _Mode._—Mix the oil and wine together, with sufficient flour to make them into a thickish paste; cleanse the anchovies, wipe them, dip them in the paste, and fry of a nice brown colour. _Time._—½ hour. _Average cost_, for this quantity, 9_d._ _Sufficient_ for 2 persons. _Seasonable_ all the year.

4

ANCHOVIES, Potted, or Anchovy Butter.

5

_Ingredients._—2 dozen anchovies, ½ lb. of fresh butter. _Mode._—Wash the anchovies thoroughly; bone and dry them, and pound them in a mortar to a paste. Mix the butter gradually with them, and rub the whole through a sieve. Put it by in small pots for use, and carefully exclude the air with a bladder, as it soon changes the colour of anchovies, besides spoiling them. To potted anchovies may be added pounded mace, cayenne, and nutmeg to taste.

6

APPLE CHARLOTTE, a very simple.

7

_Ingredients._—9 slices of bread and butter, about 6 good-sized apples, 1 tablespoonful of minced lemon-peel, 2 tablespoonfuls of juice, moist sugar to taste. _Mode._—Butter a pie-dish; place a layer of bread and butter, without the crust, at the bottom; then a layer of apples, pared, cored, and cut into thin slices; sprinkle over these a portion of the lemon-peel and juice, and sweeten with moist sugar. Place another layer of bread and butter, and then one of apples, proceeding in this manner until the dish is full; then cover it up with the peel of the apples, to preserve the top from browning or burning; bake in a brisk oven for rather more than ¾ hour; turn the charlotte on a dish, sprinkle sifted sugar over, and serve. _Time._—¾ hour, or a few minutes longer. _Average cost_, 1_s._ _Sufficient_ for 5 or 6 persons. _Seasonable_ from August to March.
