JELLIED EGGS
Cook the same as curdled eggs, leaving eggs in fifteen minutes instead of eight.
SHIRRED EGGS
Oil a small platter or granite egg dish, break in fresh eggs, being careful not to break the yolks. Sprinkle with minced parsley, salt, and add a bit of butter. Set in oven and bake till cooked as desired. Serve at once.
CREAM SHIRRED EGGS
Prepare eggs as for shirred eggs, omitting parsley. Pour about one tablespoonful of rich cream over them, salt, set in oven, and bake as desired. Serve at once.
FLOATED EGGS
Take two fresh eggs, separate whites from yolks, put yolks into a soup bowl of hot water, being careful not to break them. Let set two minutes, then place them, bowl and all, into a larger dish of boiling water, and cook till set as desired,—two minutes for medium, four minutes for hard. Meantime beat whites very stiff, mold them in a soup bowl, then float mold on boiling water two or three minutes till nicely set. Then place them on large platter, place yolk in center, garnish with parsley, and serve. In removing whites from bowl, take bowl in left hand, knife in right, dip bowl about one-third in water, then slip knife under edge of mold in the water. The water will get under eggs and float them out easily. This makes a nice dish for the sick, if yolks be boiled hard and whites are cooked rare.
BAKED EGGS IN TOMATO CASES
Take nice, ripe, medium-sized tomatoes, remove the stem and center with sharp paring knife or spoon sufficient to encase an egg nicely. Place them in an oiled granite baking-pan, break an egg into each tomato, salt and sprinkle with chopped parsley, and add a small piece of butter. Set in moderate oven and bake till eggs are medium done. Serve at once.
