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.

Crumb Omelette

(A German recipe.) Beat the whites and yolks of 6 eggs separately, adding to the yolks 1 cup of cream blended with a tablespoonful of cornstarch and a cup of bread-crumbs. Stir, season with salt, pepper, and parsley and a little chopped onion, pour into a buttered pan and cook until it is brown before folding. Can be served with a puree of spinach or any vegetable made into a cream, or it can be made as an ordinary omelette, the bread being cut into dice and fried before adding, in the centre.
