Caroline C. Shea presents serving suggestions for fresh lettuce salads, emphasizing chilled presentation on ice and pairings with French, Egg, or New dressing, alone or alongside sliced cucumbers and tomatoes.
Original
Lettuce
Lettuce may be served with French dressing,
this is the simplest and most wholesome salad.
Lettuce and cucumbers may be served together,
with the same dressing. Thin slices of to-
matoes, cucumbers, and white hearts of lettuce
may be served with the French dressing. All
should be on ice until served. Lettuce served
with simple Egg dressing is very nice; also
with New dressing.

By CAROLINE C. SHEA
In treating of salads the more com-
mon kinds will be avoided, as every
cook book contains full directions ; as
will also recipes for mayonnaise dress-
ing, as every cook has her own, or buys
some one of the many manufactured
varieties.
In making a salad, everything used
should be perfectly fresh and cold. A
salad is something which should appear
at least once a day on every table.
