TO DECORATE.

When served in any way as described above, one or two or more skewers

may be run through craw-fish and a slice of truffle, and stuck in the

meat, or through sweetbreads _au jus_, and slices of truffles. It makes

a beautiful and good decoration.

The skewers may also be run through chicken-combs, prepared as for

_farce_; first through a comb, then through a slice of truffle, through

a sweetbread, again through a slice of truffle, then through a

craw-fish, and lastly a slice of truffle, or the reverse, according to

fancy.

_With Rice._--It is surrounded with rice croquettes, the drippings

strained over the whole.

We could put down some twenty or more other ways, but any one with an

ordinary amount of natural capacity can do it, by varying the

_garnitures_, _purees_, _decorations_, etc.

Cold roast-beef is prepared like boiled beef.
