This is from an old cookbook featuring recipes from American Inns. Cheshire Inn & Lodge in St. Louis, Missouri claims this wonderful dish. (Don't know if they're still around.)It has quite a few steps but isn't hard to make at all. Even if you're a newbie in the kitchen this will really impress your family and guests. Great for Thanksgiving.
