Lengthwise across the center of the platter place 3 asparagus end to end. Using this as a base, place 8 asparagus vertically to represent the 8 candles. To form the base of the Menorah, place under the lengthwise line of tips, in the center, 2 half pieces of asparagus, side by side vertically, and underneath these, one asparagus horizontally. Mash the yolks with butter or mayonaise and form into tiny balls, with a point at one end to represent the tip of the flame. Sprinkle with paprika and place above the 8 asparagus candles.

Boil a chicken until tender. Take all the meat from the bones and put through the meat chopper. To every pint of meat add 2 eggs, a tablespoonful of parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Form into small balls and boil in chicken stock for three minutes. Serve on lettuce with mayonnaise. For the dressing, put the yolk of one egg in a soup plate, stir with a fork until it slightly thickens. Then add, drop by drop, olive oil until you have the required amount of dressing. If it becomes too thick to work easily, add a few drops of vinegar or lemon juice. When done season with salt and pepper and mustard if you wish. The addition of an equal quantity of whipped cream is very nice.
