(_Beets à la Polonaise_)
Boil eight little beets, skin them and chop them (not too fine).
Take one level tablespoonful of butter, and one tablespoonful of flour.
Brown it until it is of a golden hue. Stir into this half a cupful of
vinegar, two tablespoonsful of sugar, half a teaspoonful of salt and a
little pepper. Bring it to boiling, then mix this with your beets.
