Oyster Pates No 2 Recipe
Spread some puff-paste about half an inch thick. Cut out six pieces with
a small tea-cup. Rub a baking sheet over with a brush dipped in water,
and put the pates on it at a little distance from each other. Glaze them
thoroughly with the yolk and white of egg mixed up; open a hole at the
top of each with a small knife; cut six tops of the size of a
crown-piece, and place them lightly on the pates. Let them be baked, and
when done remove the tops, and place the crust on paper till ready to
serve up; then fill them with oysters (as described in the preceding
recipe) put the tops over them, and dish them upon a folded napkin.
