Sandwiches

anchovy, a tablespoonful of good stock, a dash of cayenne and the juice of half a lemon; mix and rub the whole to a smooth paste. Take a round biscuit cutter and cut from thin slices of stale bread, round sandwiches, spread each one lightly with butter, and toast in the oven until a golden brown. Spread a layer of the mixture on each of these, place two together. Rub four tablespoonfuls of Parmesan cheese and two tablespoonfuls of butter to a paste, spread a thin covering of this over the top of each sandwich, stand in the oven a few moments, and send to the table hot.
