Baked Sheep’s Head à la Russe.
Let the boiled and boned sheep’s head get cold in the bake-dish. Then brush over with raw egg, and sift over it a mixture of fine crumbs, a dust of flour and some minced parsley (dried and powdered is better), seasoned with pepper and salt. Set in the oven; baste well with butter, as it browns. Serve in the dish, and send with it a boat of drawn butter, based upon a cupful of the soup and seasoned with French mustard, the juice of half a lemon, and some onion pickle minced very fine.
