And I would have bought Diamet (now part of BHP-Billiton) when the
driller said, "I swear we found kimberlite with garnets in it. We're
sure to find diamonds soon."

     Title: Frogs Or Nymphs A L'Aurore
Categories: French, Historical, Frogs
  Servings: 4

    frogs legs
    white-wine court bouillon
    chaud-froid sauce of fish
    with paprika
    champagne jelly
    chervil pluches
    tarragon leaves

For various reasons, I thought it best, in the past, to substitute
the mythological name Nymphs for the more vulgar term Frogs on
menus, and the former has been universally adopted.

Frogs are the pet abomination of all classes of the population, with
but few exceptions; nevertheless Nymphes A L'Aurore, the recipe of
which I gave among the hors-doeuvres, are generally appreciated.

Poach the frogs legs in an excellent white-wine courtbouillon. When
cooled, trim them properly, dry them thoroughly in a piece of fine
linen, and steep them, one after the other, in a chaud-froid sauce
of fish with paprika, the tint of which should be golden. This done,
arrange the treated legs on a layer of champagne jelly, which should
have set beforehand on the bottom of a square, silver dish or
crystal bowl. Now lay some chervil pluches and tarragon leaves
between the legs in imitation of water-grasses, and cover the whole
with champagne jelly to counterfeit the effect of water. Send the
dish to the table, set in a block of ice, fashioned as fancy may
suggest.
