    Recipe Introduction


    This recipe for fried cheese sticks, or "pipefarces", appears in Le Ménagier de Paris, a French work of c. 1393.

    List of Ingredients




    2 egg yolks
    2 Tablespoons white wine
    5 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
    dash salt, or to taste
    1/2 pound muenster cheese, cut into 1/2-inch by 1/2-inch slices*
    oil

    Recipe



    Heat the oil in a deep pan until hot. Beat together the egg yolks and wine. Add the flour and salt, and beat until smooth. Dip the cheese in the batter, and coat it completely with a thin layer of batter. Fry the cheese sticks in the oil until the cheese sticks float and appear golden. Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

    Makes about 10 cheese sticks.
