Chicken White Fricassee Of Recipe
Cut in pieces chickens or rabbits; wash and dry them in a cloth; flour
them well, and fry in clarified butter till they are a little brown,
but, if not enough done, put them in a stewpan, and just cover them with
strong veal or beef broth. Put in with them a bunch of thyme, an onion
stuck with cloves, a little pepper and salt, and a blade of mace. Cover
and stew till tender, and till the liquor is reduced about one half. Put
in a quarter of a pound of butter, the yolk of two eggs beat, and a
quarter of a pint of cream. Stir well; let it boil; if not thick enough,
shake in some flour; and then put in juice of lemon.
