Another Queen's Soup Recipe
For a small terrine take about three quarters of a pound of almonds;
blanch, and pound them very fine. Cut up a fowl, leaving the breast
whole, and stew in consomme. When the breast is tender, take it out,
(leaving the other parts to stew with the consomme) pound it well with
the almonds and three hard-boiled yolks of eggs, and take it out of the
mortar. Strain the consomme, and put it, when the fat is skimmed off, to
the almonds, &c. Have about a quarter of a pint of Scotch barley boiled
very tender, add it to the other ingredients, put them into a pot with
the consomme, and stir it over the fire till it is boiling hot and well
mixed. Rub it through a tamis, and season it with a little salt; it must
not boil after being rubbed through.
