FOR MRS. BURD, FROM HER AFFECTIONATE ELIZA POWEL, OCTOBER 13, 1810.
_Contributed by Mr. and Mrs. John Cadwalader, Philadelphia, Pa._
Beat 12 eggs, yolks and whites, to a froth, add 2 middling sized onions, handful of fresh parsley, chop very fine and mince. Beat these ingredients into the eggs, pepper and salt to your taste. Fry it in boiling hot butter, five minutes is long enough over a brisk fire. The eggs will form into a pancake in the frying pan; when done, double it lightly in half, and dish it up hot to your table. (The French frequently add a little garlic, or fresh leeks.)
