MR GREVILLE ON THE 
M. Paulet's mode of cooking them, is to stew them 
with a Uttle butter, and, when they have become softened, 
to throw off the water which has come from them, and re- 
place them on the fire with butter, parsley, and young 
onions, sprinking the whole gently with flour; they are 
afterwards moistened with " homllon^'' to which yolks of 
eggs are added to complete the process. 
Others dress them with lard, adding salt, pepper, some 
ham, and a little parsley; this requires about an hour; 
afterwards they are put into a gravy- sauce, or a fricassee 
of fowls. Care must be taken to cover the stew-pan with 
paper beneath the lid, in order to prevent the flavour from 
escaping. 
In some parts of Great Britain the Clavaria are abun- 
dant.
