Scalloped Parsnips Recipe

Ingredients for Scalloped Parsnips

• A breakfast cup of mashed parsnips
• 1 ounce of butter
• 4 ounces bread crumbs
• Pepper and salt

Instructions

1. Boil the parsnips as in the preceding recipe, and when quite tender drain them well, and rub them through a sieve.
2. Butter some scallops or one small French baking dish.
3. Throw in some bread crumbs, and shake out all that do not stick to the butter.
4. Take half the butter, and stir it into the mashed parsnips; if they are not hot enough to melt the butter, warm them on the stove or over the fire; season with pepper and salt, and put them either in the scallops or the little dish.
5. Cover them with the bread crumbs.
6. Break up the remainder of the butter into little bits, and put over the top.
7. Brown in a hot oven.
