What a hungry lot of guests! What's this? It looks like fish rissoles;" and with this he picks out one, and crams his mouth full; when, on one side, a mess of young cuttlefish, in a Chinese porcelain bowl, catches his eyes. There the little beauties sit in a circle, like Buddhist priests in religious meditation!
Croquettes are made from a soft creamy mixture chilled on ice till firm enough to mould, then simply dipped into egg and crumbs and fried in very hot fat. Many only stick a sprig of parsley where the bone should be, to keep up the fiction. The rolls are then egged, crumbed, and fried. Rissoles are the same thing, only rather easier to prepare, being rolled in very thin pastry instead of pork.
He sat down and listened, then he, too, began telling stories of all sorts. Nikolay, sitting on the stove with his legs hanging down, listened and asked questions about the dishes that were prepared in the old days for the gentry. They talked of rissoles, cutlets, various soups and sauces, and the cook, who remembered everything very well, mentioned dishes that are no longer served.
If she warmed up a plateful of soup it was lovely soup, and had set into a perfect jelly and made rissoles of the mutton, and sent them to table with some vegetables, with a pudding to follow; would that do? Colwyn replied smilingly that would do excellently, and Ann withdrew, promising to serve the meal within an hour. Colwyn passed that time in the bar parlour.
"But that doth me not to wit what manner of man he is," responded Amphillis, turning to the sewer or waiter, who was offering her some rissoles of lamb. Agatha indulged in a little explosion of laughter under cover of her handkerchief. "Oh, Amphillis, where hast thou dwelt all thy life? Amphillis replied literally.
When everything was safely stowed away, and Martha had been made supremely happy by the gift of two mince pies for her mother, and had trotted off red in the face with excitement, Olivia busied herself in getting the supper ready. The unsightly remains of a cold shoulder of mutton had been transformed into tempting rissoles. Olivia always treated her husband to a hot supper on Christmas Eve.
Fry them in butter, and when you take them out of the pan, fry some parsley in it. Having drained the parsley, cover the bottom of a dish with it, and lay the croquets upon it. Send it to table as a side dish. Croquets maybe made of cold sweet-breads, or of cold veal mixed with ham or tongue. Rissoles are made of the same ingredients, well mixed, and beaten smooth in a mortar.
'I am taking him a cousin, answered Brian, stealing an admiring glance at Ida; 'surely that ought to secure our welcome. 'I hope his housekeeper has large ideas about luncheon, said Bessie, 'or Blanche's appetite will throw her out in her calculations. If she is the sort of person who thinks a pair of ducklings and a dish of rissoles substantial fare for a large party, I pity her.
"Here's cake worth eating," said the farmer, "and new-laid eggs worth taking; and here's honey the like of which is not to be found anywhere else, even in the New Forest. And here's chicken rissoles, and here's cooked ham. Now, missy, fall to fall to." Pauline ate very little, and then she turned to the farmer. "And now you want me to help you?" he said. "I want you to take me to the seaside.
Wen Wang, being versed in divination and the science of the pa kua, Eight Trigrams, knew that these rissoles contained the flesh of his son, and to avoid the snare spread for him he ate three of the rissoles in the presence of the royal envoys. On their return the latter reported this to the King, who found himself helpless on learning of Wen Wang's conduct.
