Timbale de Maccaroni

Ingredients

• maccaroni
• chicken fricassee, sweetbreads, or similar
• rich white sauce
• butter or fat

Instructions

1. This is a very pretty dish.
2. The maccaroni must be boiled in water till it slightly swells and is soft enough to cut, then cut into short pieces about two inches in length.
3. Grease a mould and stick the maccaroni closely together all over the mould.
4. When this is done, which will require some patience, fill up the space with friccassee of chicken, sweetbreads, or whatever may be liked.
5. Close the mould carefully and boil.
6. Rich white sauce is usually served with it, but not poured over the timbale, as it would spoil the effect of the honeycomb appearance, which is very pretty.
