Russian Salad
First soak six herrings in water for twenty-four hours; skin and take out all bones, and cut them up fine. To this add some anchovies and about half pound of smoked salmon (lobster may be used instead of salmon if desired), chopped fine. Cold roast turkey, chicken or veal may be added and is an improvement. Add to the above a liberal amount of pickled cucumbers, capers and olives; make a rich mayonnaise dressing and pour over all. Line a salad bowl with fresh lettuce leaves, fill in the salad and garnish with hard-boiled eggs. -Mrs. Charles A. Wilson, N. C.
