Kidney Toast

Pound in a mortar a cold veal kidney, with the fat which surrounds it. Season it with half a tea-spoonful of salt, half a tea-spoonful of pepper, the finely-grated rind of a quarter of a lemon, and two or three grates of nutmeg. Mix it with the white of an egg, well whisked. Lay it upon pieces of toast cut into squares. Cover with the yolk of the egg, well beaten, and strew bread-crumbs over. Melt one ounce of butter in a dish, put in the toasts, and place them in a hot oven to bake. Serve as hot as possible. Time, a quarter of an hour to bake the toasts. Probable cost, 8d. Sufficient for three or four persons.
