COLD DISHES FOR HOT DAYS
1t IL Upon Salads that One Relies
Principally at This Time
of Year.

After all II is upon salads that one relies
principally for cold dishes in hot weather,
The names OF these are legion and they
may be as simple or as elaborate as one
pleeses. The green salads every one knows
lettuce, cress, romGine, e~scarole. endive,
beet tops, dandelion, chicory. But these
are only a beginning. When tomatoes come
the salad expert is In her glory. She
makes them into baskets, with and without
handles, and fills them with anything and
everything edible. Meat or fish, vegetable
or fruit, nuts or cheese, singly or in com
binations, with a French or a mayonnaise
or a boiled dressing-all are good. She ar
ranges sliced tomatoes in meat or tomato
or cucumber aspic, and let's her ingenuity
go In devising unusual effects. With Gu
cumbers, too, she achieves great results,
converting them also into baskets to hold
celery or tomatoes, or cold meat or fish
well seasoned.
One Of the prettiest Of the luncheon or
supper salads is made by cutting the top
from a green pepper, removing the seeds
with a knife or a ~stick-they burn the skin
II touched with the fingers-and filling the
basket thus made with chicken or lobster
salad. Each pepper may be placed on a
lettuce leaf and crowned with a spoonful
Of ~mayonnaise. Another salad Is prepared
by following a tomato and filling It Wit
dice Of cucumber, or peeling a cucumber,
cutting 1t in half lengthwise. scooping out
the inside, and replacing this with dice OF
tomatoes. Serve either tomato or cucuul-
Der on a lettuce leaf, and garnish with
cucumber ribbons. These are made by
shaving the peel from the outside of a Gu
cumber and then sllcing this. TAX a slice
1T should be rather thick-and with a
sharp knife cut iris in a spiral, as you
would pare an apple. The shaving must be
very thin, as It is not long before the
seedy center is reached. and only the flesh
OF the cucumber will serve for the rib
bons. Cucumber boats filled with shrimps
ere a satisfactory dish for a cold supper.
Mayonnaise is served with this, or a good
boiled dressing. The cucumbers halved
and filled with other sliced or diced Gu
cumber, served on lettuce, garnished with
cucumber ribbons and with strips of the
scarlet sweet pepper cut very thin, make
a good dish.

others can be seen.
