The brains, well washed, and scalded in boiling water for two minutes, then laid in very cold.
2 eggs well beaten.
A little flour and butter.
Salt and pepper.
Beat the brains, when perfectly cold, into a paste; season, add the eggs and enough flour to make a good batter, with less than a teaspoonful of butter to prevent toughness. Have ready some good dripping in the frying-pan, and when it is hissing hot, drop in the batter in spoonfuls and fry.
Or—
You can fry on the griddle, like cakes.
They are very palatable either way when cooked quickly and freed of every clinging drop of grease.
