- Croutons with Shrimp (croutons aux crevettes)
Hollowed-out, butter-fried round slices of white bread filled with a shrimp stew in a butter-and-flour sauce thinned with shrimp stock or milk, seasoned with lemon, salt and pepper and thickened with egg yolk. Garnished with parsley and cooked crayfish. A fine starter from Erken's chapter on warm and cold small dishes.

Indian tartlets from Erken 1914: blind-baked tartlet shells filled with a thick mixture of butter, onion, flour, cayenne pepper, lemon, cream and boiled carrot, with one blanched oyster on top, warmed briefly in the oven and served at once.
- Crayfish Tartlets (tartelettes d'écrevisses)
