With a Saucepan Over the Sea

Adelaide Keen went abroad with a notebook and came home with the recipes — cocka leekie from Scotland, petite marmite from Paris, the maids of honor of Richmond — each dish tagged with the country that gave it.

Baked Mutton Chops

(Italy.) Braise 6 chops in stock with 2 carrots, an onion, parsley, thyme, and sweet marjoram. Let them brown, drain them, and reduce the sauce. Add to it 1/2 cup bread-crumbs, yolk of 1 hard-boiled egg, 6 mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Chop this fine and dip each chop in it, then in grated Parmesan cheese. Bake in the oven until brown and serve with Tartare sauce.

MUTTON CHOPS (as cooked in Southern France.) Trim and season 5 cutlets; fry them in 1 ounce butter. Chop 5 small onions and fry them in butter; when soft but not brown, add the juice of a lemon, some parsley, and the yolks of 2 eggs. Stir until thick and add salt and pepper. Cover the chops on both sides with this, and lay them on a dish; dust bread-crumbs thickly over all and bake until brown. Serve with green peas.
