Steamed Eggs     

Butter a platter or an egg dish.  Break six eggs into it and sprinkle with salt, pepper and plenty of grated cheese.  Cover and steam until eggs set.  Sprinkle chopped parsley over top. 

Oven temperatures are seldom given in the old books and recipes; most times the only say something like a slow oven or quick oven.  These are the equlivent to today’s oven temperatures;

A very slow oven equals 250 to 275 degrees.

A slow oven equals 300 to 325 degrees.

A moderate oven equals 350 to 375 degrees.

A hot or quick oven equals 375 to 400 degrees.

A very hot oven equals 400 to 450 degrees.
