dainty salad that looks very appetite

tips of asparagus, some string beans
and a carrot, boiling each until quite
tender in sailed water; have the
beans in pinch lengths and cut into
slender strips; the asparagus stalks

Chill couple of tomatoes and some

shallots; these must be carefully
peeled and then cut into inch lengths.
Place leaf of lettuce on a salad
plate and lay the asparagus tips in a
little pile at one side, slice or two
of tomato and a little heap of the
beans on the other; wash and cut
couple of new radishes into rounds
and lay them in another small heap

be found delicious.
