CHICKEN PANADE

Cut the chicken into small pieces and shred it finely; put this into an earthenware dish or jar with as much water as will cover it, add a pinch of salt, and cover with paper; stand the jar in a pan of boiling water, allowing the water to come within an inch of the top; cook in this way for two hours; strain the liquid from the chicken, pound it thoroughly and rub it through a sieve, using the liquid to help it through; reheat, add the cream, and add a little more seasoning if required.
