2324—Pudding de Fromage au Pain
Set some thin slices of stale, buttered and cheese-sprinkled bread in a pie-dish. Having three-parts filled the dish with it, cover the slices with a preparation consisting of the yolks of four eggs mixed with one-quarter pint of broth—which quantities are suited to a pint dish.
Sprinkle copiously with grated cheese; bake in the oven, and glaze at the last moment.
