SALADS
Every salad, no matter how plain and simple it may be should be made to look inviting and tempting. The method of draining or drying is a very easy performance so long as the salad leaves whatever they may be are almost free from moisture. This is effected best by putting the leaves which should be broken, not cut with knife into a wire basket and drying them well until the outer moisture of the leaves is well absorbed. The salad then is ready for mixing.
Any cold boiled vegetables left over from dinner is useful as giving variety to salad and helps to make a good accompaniment to cold meats served to luncheons.
