    What is a gill in terms of measurement? The Breslau of beef calls for a gill of stock.

    I love that the dish that explain what it is in the name has a recipe (chopped dates with oatmeal and cream) but leaves another for us to wonder at (Beauregard eggs).

    I am so intrigued by the rice jelly and the instructions to carefully dry the cooked grains.

    Per Wikipedia, Beauregard eggs consist of crumbled hard boiled eggs mixed with a cream sauce, spread on toast, topped with egg yolk, and finished in the broiler.

    Now that’s a breakfast I can stand behind! Unlike the other two meals, from which I would flee.

    Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes sounds great! I LOVE CARBS

    These are meals that just sound so overworked. Boil, chop, dry, mince, roll, fry and unmold. I hope it’s not the cook’s day off.

    Page one sure gets your hopes up. Then the fricassee of calf’s heart gives you a jump scare at the very top of page two. Nicely placed, Mrs. Burton.
