Summertime entertaining calls
for special planning. Ideally,
your menu should lend itself to
advance preparation so that you
can be cool and relaxed when
guests arrive. The illustrated
salad fills this requisite, for it
can be prepared during the cool
morning hours-or the day ahead.
For the tomato aspic, follow
any standard recipe and chill
the mixture in an 8-inch ring
mold. Here's the recipe for the
seafood center:
