lemon-juice and water, 1 oz. of butter, 1/2 pint of Béchamel, No. 367,
1/4 teaspoonful of pounded sugar.
_Mode_.--Turn the mushrooms white by putting them into lemon-juice and
water, having previously cut off the stalks and wiped them perfectly
free from grit. Chop them, and put them in a stewpan with the butter.
When the mushrooms are softened, add the Béchamel, and simmer for about
5 minutes; should they, however, not be done enough, allow rather more
time. They should not boil longer than necessary, as they would then
lose their colour and flavour. Rub the whole through a tammy, and serve
very hot. After this, it should be warmed in a bain marie.
_Time_.--Altogether, 1/4 hour. _Average cost_, 1s.
_Seasonable_ from August to October.
