Bread--Crumbs, Fried

Put some thin slices of bread into an oven when the fire has gone low, and let them stay all night; roll them next morning into crumbs. Put into a frying-pan some butter or lard, and when it is on the point of boiling, add the bread-crumbs. Stir them till they are of a clear brown colour. Take them out with a slice, and put them on blotting-paper before the fire, to draw away all the fat; or they may be browned in a gentle oven without butter. Bread-crumbs so prepared are useful for serving with game of any sort.
