Remove skin from ten tomatoes, medium size, cut in a saucepan, add butter, pepper and salt; when sufficiently boiled, beat up five or six eggs, and just before you serve turn them into the saucepan with the tomatoes, and stir them one way for two minutes, allowing them time to be well cooked.
OMELET
Six eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately. One cupful milk, one tablespoonful of butter melted in the milk, one tablespoonful of Gold Medal Flour; cook slowly in a buttered skillet, on top of the stove, without stirring.
POACHED OR DROPPED EGGS
Fill a pan with boiling, salted water. Break each egg into a wet saucer and slip it into the water; set the pan back where water will not boil. Dip the water over the eggs with a spoon. When the white is firm and a film has formed over the yolk, they are cooked. Take them up with a skimmer, drain and serve hot, on toast. Season with salt.
EGGS AND BACON
Cut eight slices of bacon very thin, and fry until crisp; take them out and keep hot in the oven. Break four eggs separately into the boiling fat and fry until brown. Serve with the eggs laid over the bacon, and small fried pieces of bread placed round. Hash may be used instead of bacon.
POACHED EGGS
Have the water boiling, and the toast moistened in a little salt water, and buttered. Break the eggs, one by one, carefully into the water, let them boil till the white sets, remove with an egg slice, pare off the ragged edges and lay each egg upon a slice of toast; put over bits of butter, salt and pepper. Eggs require to be quite fresh to poach nicely.
