Cabbage Salad

Good Housekeeping 1900-07: Vol 31 Iss 1 · Page n22

Editorial context

Presented as part of an Independence Day menu, this salad achieves a red, white, and blue motif by stuffing hollowed fresh red tomatoes with dressed shredded white cabbage and serving the assembled dish on blue china.

Original

Choose smooth tomatoes as nearly of a size as possible. Cut off the stem end of the tomatoes, and carefully remove the seeds. Place on ice. When cold, fill the whole tomatoes with finely chopped white cabbage, seasoned with a tablespoonful of grated horse-radish, white pepper, and lemon juice, and place a little may-onnaise dressing on top. The salad thus served on blue china artistically combined our national colors.
