Plovers' Eggs, Boiled

Boil in the same way as hen's eggs, allowing from eight to ten minutes; arrange them nicely, and, if served in a napkin, garnish with parsley. Serve brown bread and butter with them. Some people dislike the method of serving in a basket above mentioned; in which case a napkin, prettily folded, should be used.
