poach egg recipeThe previous tips is How To Preserve Eggs – part 1

EGGS DE LESSEPS
Shir the eggs as directed. Have ready, carefully boiled, two sets of
calves’ brains; cut them into slices; put two or three slices between
the eggs, and then pour over browned butter sauce.

EGGS MEYERBEER
To each half dozen eggs allow three lambs’ kidneys. Broil the kidneys.
Shir the eggs as directed in the first recipe. When done, put half a
kidney on each side of the plate and pour over sauce Perigueux.

EGGS A LA REINE
6 eggs
1/2 pint of chopped cold cooked chicken
1/2 can of mushrooms
2 tablespoonfuls of butter
2 tablespoonfuls of flour
1/2 pint of milk
1/2 teaspoonful of salt
1 saltspoonful of pepper
Use ordinary shirring dishes for the eggs; butter them, break into
each one egg, stand these in a pan of boiling water and in the oven
until they are “set.” Rub the butter and flour together, add the milk,
stir until boiling, add the salt, pepper, chopped chicken and
mushrooms, and put one tablespoonful of this on top of each egg and
send at once to the table. This is also nice if you put a
tablespoonful of the mixture in the bottom of the dish, break the egg
into it, and then at serving time put another tablespoonful over the
top.

EGGS AU MIROIR
Cover the bottom of a graniteware or silver platter with fresh bread
crumbs, break in as many eggs as are needed for the number of persons
to be served. Put bits of butter here and there, stand the platter
over a baking pan of hot water in the oven until the eggs are “set,”
dust them with salt and pepper and send them to the table.
