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.

Mushrooms with Eggs

(A Hungarian recipe.) This is excellent. Peel and slice 1 pound of fresh mushrooms. Cook them until tender--remember that mushrooms, like liver and kidney, must not be cooked too long or they will be tough--in sufficient white broth to cover, adding some butter, onion, herbs, and seasoning. Press this through a sieve on an earthen plate, lay on it, very carefully, four or more poached eggs. Add salt and pepper, and serve.
