our triangular pieces of toasted bread spread with
mayonnaise dressing; cover two of these with lettuce, lay thin slices of
cold chicken (white meat) upon the lettuce, over this arrange slices of
broiled breakfast bacon, then lettuce, and cover with the other
triangles of toast spread with mayonnaise. Trim neatly, arrange on a
plate, and garnish with heart leaves of lettuce dipped in mayonnaise.
=Wedding Sandwich Rolls.=
Wrap bread as it is taken from the oven closely in a towel wrung out of
cold water, cover with several thicknesses of dry cloth and set aside
about four hours; then cut away the crust, and with a thin, sharp knife
cut the loaf or loaves in slices as thin as possible and spread with
butter, and, if desired, thin shavings of meat, potted meat or chopped
nuts; roll the slices very closely and pile on a serving-dish.
=The Milwaukee Sandwich.=
INGREDIENTS.
2 thin rounds of white bread.
1 thin round of graham or rye bread.
4 large oysters, broiled or fried.
Breast of cooked chicken, or turkey.
Two slices of crisp bacon.
Horseradish.
Lettuce.
4 small sweet pickles.
4 small radishes.
Slice of lemon.
1 tomato, skin removed.
Tartare sauce.
_Method._--Dip the bread in beaten egg, seasoned with salt and saute to
a rich brown in hot butter. Roll the oysters in grated bread crumbs
(centre of the loaf) and broil them, or "egg and bread" them, and fry in
deep fat. Lay the first slice of bread on a plate over two or three
lettuce leaves, put the oysters on the bread, a grating of horseradish
on each oyster; cover with the graham or rye bread; on this lay the
chicken or turkey cut in thin slices, season with salt and pepper, put
on the bacon, and cover with the other slice of bread. On top of the
sandwich lay a slice of lemon cut square, and about this dispose the
pickles and radishes, to form a star. Serve the tomato on a lettuce leaf
at the side. Cut out the hard centre from the tomato and fill the
opening with sauce tartare. In making this sauce, add to mayonnaise or
boiled dressing, onion, olives, sweet pickles and celery, chopped fine
and squeezed dry in a cloth.
