Instructions
- Fill a deep glass dish half full of jelly.
- Have as many small fish-moulds as will lie conveniently in it, and fill them with blanc mange.
- When they are cold and the jelly is set, lay them on it as if going in different directions.
- Put in a little more jelly and let it get cold, to keep the fish in their places.
- Then fill the dish so as to cover them.
- The jelly should be made of hog's feet, very light coloured and perfectly transparent.
