Ham and Chicken Mousse
3 egg yolks
1½ cups scalded milk
1 tbs. gelatine
¼ cup cold water
½ cup tomato juice
1 cup chopped cooked ham
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
½ cup finely-grated American cheese
Salt and pepper
1 tbs. chopped pimento
1 cup whipping cream
Beat the egg yolks, mix with the scalded milk, and cook in a double boiler, stirring often until the mixture thickens slightly. Soak the gelatine in the cold water for 5 minutes and dissolve in the hot tomato juice. Add to the hot custard mixture and stir until thoroughly mixed. Add the ham, chicken, cheese, pimento, salt and pepper to taste, and cool. Fold in the cream whipped until it holds its shape. Freeze.
