Cheese Balls (If stale cheese is used)

If stale cheese is used in the preparation of cheese balls, a much better result is obtained than if fresh is used. To a half cupful of grated cheese, add a quarter of a cupful of bread crumbs, two eggs and a dash of cayenne pepper. For the crumbs, use stale bread and mix well with the cheese and the beaten yolks of the eggs. When thoroughly blended, add the whites, beaten to a stiff froth. If the balls, which should be the size of the yolk of a hard boiled egg, are too soft to handle, roll them in bread crumbs, fry in deep fat and serve hot with salad.
