liked, a very little lemon-juice.
_Mode_.--Boil the eggs until quite hard, which will be in about 20
minutes, and put them into cold water for 1/2 hour. Strip off the
shells, chop the eggs into small pieces, not, however, too fine. Make
the melted butter very smoothly, by recipe No. 376, and, when boiling,
stir in the eggs, and serve very hot. Lemon-juice may be added at
pleasure.
_Time_.--20 minutes to boil the eggs. _Average cost_, 8d.
_Sufficient_.--This quantity for 3 or 4 lbs. of fish.
_Note_.--When a thicker sauce is required, use one or two more eggs to
the same quantity of melted butter.
