CROQUETTS

All Croquettes should be golden in 2 to 4 minutes.

ABOUT CROQUETTES

Use about 3/4 cup of heavy cream or brown sauce to 2 cups of ground or minced solids, meat or fish and vegetables.

The solids should not be watery-always well drained. You may add to the hot sauce 1 to 2 egg yolks and let them thicken slightly off the heat. Add enough sauce to the solids so that they are well bound, but still of a rather stiff consistency. There is a good deal of leeway in this relationship, provided-after chilling-the mixture can be easily handled. Spread it in a greased pan and chill thoroughly. You may also brush the top of the mixture lightly with butter to avoid crusting. When cool, form into shapes not larger than 1 x 1 x2-1/2 inches or in small balls or cones. Roll in flour, then coat carefully in a bound breading. Allow them to dry on a rack for an hour, if possible. To avoid bursting, if the mixture is a soft one, you may coat as described. Then dry for about 10 minutes, recoat and dry for 1 hour before frying.

Preheat deep-fat fryer to 375°F to 385°F and immerse the croquettes, not too many at a time, in a basket, so they will have exactly the same amount of cooking time. They will be golden in 2 to 4 minutes, unless otherwise indicated. Drain on absorbent paper. You may hold them briefly before serving on a rack

in a 350” oven.

To reheat croquettes, use a 400” oven.
