2. Hambro’ Salad will be required for supper to-morrow evening.
It may be partially prepared to-day, that is, the ingredients may be
collected, and the anchovies may be filleted and laid between two
dishes. To prepare the salad, cleanse the lettuce and endive, dry it
thoroughly, and shred it finely. Put it in a salad bowl, and mix with
it half a dozen filleted anchovies, a small slice of the boiled salmon
torn into flakes, two or three slices of German sausage finely minced,
a few slices of cold boiled potatoes, and a sour apple chopped small.
Toss the whole lightly and thoroughly together at the moment of
serving with the ordinary salad dressing, oil, vinegar, pepper, and
salt (March 13th), sprinkle a spoonful of minced German sausage on
the top, garnish with hard-boiled eggs, and serve. Strictly speaking,
kippered salmon and grated Hambro1 beef ought to enter into the
composition of this salad, but when they are not at hand ingredients
of a like character may take their place.
