The Viennese have a word for these things, einlagen, or “inlay.” As Lillian Langseth Christensen indicated in Gourmet’s Old Vienna Cookbook, the word doesn’t mean something from the dentist but rather garnishes for clear soup. These garnishes were variously placed neatly in the individual soup bowls before the soup was added, or put into a tureen along with the soup, or simply served in the soup.
