1100—TOURNEDOS LESDIGUIÈRES
Select onions sufficiently large to admit of placing the tournedos upon
them, and let their number equal that of the tournedos.
Trim their tops, and parboil them almost long enough to cook them.
Then, by means of a small knife, cut out their insides so that they may form
little cases. Fill the latter, two-thirds full, with spinach prepared with cream,
cover the spinach with Mornay sauce, and set them to glaze in a fierce oven
a few moments before the tournedos are ready.
Grill the tournedos; dish them in the form of a crown, each on an onion.
1101—TOURNEDOS LILI
Season the tournedos, and fry them in butter.
Dish them, in the form of a crown, each on a crust of “Pommes de terre
Anna” (No. 2203), stamped out with a round, even cutter of the same size

gras tossed in butter, and on the foie gras place a slice of truffle. Send,
separately, a reduced and well-buttered Périgueux sauce.

and coat the whole with half-glaze sauce prepared with truffle essence.
1103—TOURNEDOS MADELEINE
For ten tournedos prepare (1) ten timbales of a purée of haricot beans. For
these timbales the purée of haricot beans must be cohered per lb. with one
egg and three yolks, finished with two oz. of butter, put into well-buttered
dariole-moulds, and set these to poach fifteen minutes in advance.
(2) Ten small artichoke-bottoms garnished with reduced Soubise.
Season the tournedos; fry them in butter; dish them, and surround them with
the timbales and the artichoke-bottoms, alternating the two garnishes.

Surround with a row of small artichoke-bottoms, garnished with very stiff
Béarnaise sauce.
1108—TOURNEDOS A LA MÉNAGÈRE
Put into an earthenware cocotte the following vegetables, which should be
in proportion to the number of tournedos:—Haricot butter or “Princesse”
cut into small pieces, minced new carrots, very small new onions, and very
fresh peas.
All these vegetables should be equally apportioned.
Add salt, butter, and a very little water, for the cooking of the vegetables
should be effected mainly by the concentration of steam inside the cocotte,
which, for the purpose, should therefore be well closed.
Fry the tournedos in butter, and dish them upon the vegetables in the
cocotte at the last moment.

1140—FILETS EN CHEVREUIL
For the “en chevreuil” treatment, the meat used is generally cut from the
narrowest end of the fillet of beef. The weight of the pieces cut should
average about three oz. each.
After having slightly flattened and trimmed them, lard them with very thin
strips of bacon, and marinade them for a few hours in the raw marinade
given under No. 169. When about to cook them, dry them thoroughly, and
fry them quickly in hot oil, taking care that the latter be smoking, and
therefore hot enough to set the meat and to cause its external moisture to
evaporate.
The fillets may be accompanied by all vegetable purées and highly-
seasoned sauces, the most suitable of the latter being the Poivrade and the
Chasseur.
1142—PORTERHOUSE-STEAK (Grill)
Porterhouse-steak is a slice from the sirloin of beef, which may be more or
less thick. It is cleared of the flank and of the bones of the chine, and it is
always grilled.
It may be served with any of the various garnishes and sauces suited to
grills; but it is more often served plain.
1143—UPPER FILLET AND RIBS OF BEEF (Relevé)
The upper fillet is that part of beef which lies between the top of the haunch
and the floating ribs, alongside of the chine. It may be treated like the fillet,
and all the garnishes suited to the latter may also be applied here.
If the piece is to be braised, it should be completely boned; if intended for
roasting, it is best to retain the bones. In the latter case, the large ligament
should be cut at various points with the view of preventing distortion, while
the bones constituting the spinous process should be broken close to the
point where they join the body of the vertebræ, that they may be easily
removed when the meat is being carved.
The upper fillet, especially when it is of good quality, is best roasted.
Ribs of beef may likewise be braised or roasted.
In either case, the meat should be properly trimmed and cleared of all the
bones of the spinous process.
This piece should only be used after having been well hung, in order that it
may be as tender as possible.
1152—THE RUMP
R B .
The rump is that portion of the sirloin of beef which touches the top of the
haunch.
It may be braised, but it is more often grilled in slices from one inch to one
and one-half inches thick, which are called “rumpsteaks.”
With reference to this subject, it is as well to point out that the term
“Beefsteak,” so hackneyed in France, is scarcely used in England, owing to
its want of precision.
In France, beefsteak is either a cut from the fillet, the upper-fillet, or the
rump, according to the standing of the catering-house which supplies it. But
the nature of the piece cannot very well be mistaken, inasmuch as the term
beefsteak, which designates it, is generally followed by other French words
which reveal its origin, whereas in England the term “Beefsteak” does not
convey any particular meaning.
Rumpsteak is either grilled or sautéd, but whatever be the method of
cooking it, it is generally served plain.
All garnishes suited to fillets, however, may be served with it, as also the
various butters and sauces generally used with grills.
1153—LANGUE DE BŒUF
Ox tongue is served fresh or salted, but, even when it is to be served fresh,
it is all the better for having been put in salt a few days previously. In order
to salt it, put it into a special brine, as explained under No. 172. When
salted, it is cooked in boiling water; when fresh, it is braised exactly after
the manner of any other piece of meat.
Ox tongue may be served with almost all the garnishes suited to relevés of
fillet of beef, but more particularly with the following:—Bourgeoise;
Flamande; Milanaise; Noodles or Macaroni with cream, cheese or
tomatoes; and all vegetable purées.
The most suitable sauces are:—Madeira sauce, Piquante sauce, Tomato
sauce, or their derivatives.
OX TAILS.
Ox tails, sectioned or unsectioned, are usually braised, and only the thicker
half of the caudal appendage is ever used.
