INSTRUCTIONS
Start heating oven to 375ºF. Pour boiling water over beef; let stand one
minute; then drain or use beef right from package or jar if you prefer a
full flavor.
Melt butter in large skillet or saucepan. Heat dried beef in butter,
stirring, until slightly crisp. Stir in flour, pepper. Add milk; cook,
stirring, until smooth and thickened. Add pimento, drained mushrooms. Pour
into 1 1/2 qt. casserole. Put casserole into oven.
Then make this topping: Add salt to egg whites; beat till stiff. With same
beater, beat egg yolks till light-colored; then fold into beaten whites.
Pour over hot creamed dried-beef mixture. Bake, uncovered, 20 to 25
minutes, or until cake tester or toothpick inserted in topping comes out
clean.
Serve at once from casserole.
