Cut slices of stale home-made bread about half an inch thick, shape them
like chops, soak the slices in a rich, well seasoned vegetable stock
until nearly saturated with it--don't allow them to become too
soft--then dip in beaten egg mixed with a little milk and fry in butter
in a spider until a nice brown. Serve with tomato sauce, or around a
dish of stewed tomatoes.
