CHICKEN SALAD IN A PASTRY BOWL 
Chicken meat cooked, cooled and cut into chunks
Mayonnaise, enough to moisten salad
Lettuce to line pastry bowl
Salt, pepper, paprika to taste
1 c. diced celery
1 tsp. finely chopped onion
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. flour
1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. caraway seeds
2 eggs

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Heat water and butter to boil in saucepan. Stir in flour, salt and caraway seeds at once. Stir vigorously over low heat until mixture leaves sides of pan and forms a ball, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cool slightly about 10 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth and velvety after each addition.

Spread batter touching sides of pan, but do not spread up sides of 9 inch round cake pan. Bake 45-50 minutes. Cool. Slightly away from drafts. (The "puff" will form a bowl - high on sides and flat in center.) Any type of salad goes well inside this bowl.
