DEVILLED TOMATOES

Breakfast, Luncheon and Tea
By Marion Harland [Mary Virginia Terhune] (1875)



DEVILLED TOMATOES.

• Fine, firm tomatoes--about a quart.
• 3 hard-boiled eggs--the yolks only.
• 3 table-spoonfuls melted butter.
• 3 table-spoonfuls vinegar.
• 2 raw eggs, whipped light.
• 1 teaspoonful powdered sugar.
• 1 saltspoonful salt.
• 1 teaspoonful made mustard.
• A good pinch of cayenne pepper.



Pound the boiled yolks; rub in the butter and seasoning.

Beat light, add the vinegar, and heat almost to a boil.

Stir in the beaten egg until the mixture begins to thicken.

Set in hot water while you cut the tomatoes in slices nearly half an inch thick.

Broil over a clear fire upon a wire oyster-broiler.

Lay on a hot chafing-dish, and pour the hot sauce over them.
