hem remain in oven a few minutes longer to glaze; put two and two together with jelly between; or they may be served single. 729. +Cannelous.+-- Prepare 1 pound puff paste and roll it out 8 times, instead of 6; then take about 18 connelonghoelzer (they consist of round pieces of wood about 5 inches long and a finger thick, and can be bought at wholesale confectioneries) and rub each piece of wood over with butter; roll the paste out very thin and cut it into strips of about 1 inch wide and 9 inches long; wind a strip of the paste around each piece of wood, snake-like, brush them over with beaten egg, lay them in shallow tins and bake in a quick oven; when done remove the pieces of wood and when cold fill the cannelous with whipped cream flavored with vanilla and sweetened with sugar. 730. +Vole-au-vent.+-- Carefully prepare 1 pound puff paste and roll and fold it 6 times; great care must be taken in doing this, as the whole result depends upon it; after the last rolling let it lay in summer 1/2 hour on ice, in winter in a cold place; when ready to use roll the paste out 1 inch in thickness, place the dish on which the vol-au-veut is to be served upside down onto the paste and cut off the paste from the dish; turn the paste around and lay it on a tin which has been dampened with water; make with the back of a knife a few dents in it around the edge, brush the top over with beaten egg and make with the point of a knife a slight incision in the paste all round the top about 1-1/2 inches from the edge; this forms the cover; bake in a very hot oven; do not open the oven for 10 minutes; then open and if the vol-au-veut is a light brown cover with paper and bake from 3/4 to 1 hour; when done remove the cover, put the vol-au-veut onto the dish it was made to fit and set it for a few minutes in the oven to dry; then fill with either ragouts or fricasseed chickens, birds, rabbits or pigeons, put on the cover and serve; or fill it with fresh or preserved fruit and serve as a dessert. 731. +Vole-au-vent (with Strawberries and Whipped Cream).+-- Roll out some carefully made puff paste 3/4 inch in thickness and cut it out with a fluted cutter the desired shape, either round or oval; make a slight incision in the paste 1 inch from the edge and bake in a very hot oven; when nearly done brush it over with white of egg, dust with sugar and put it back in the oven to glaze; when done remove the interior, or soft crumbs, and fill th
