Salad Mixture, Quihi

Rub the yolks of three hard-boiled eggs with the back of a wooden spoon till quite smooth, and beat in drop by drop three dessert-spoonfuls of fine salad-oil. Add, just as slowly, six dessert-spoonfuls of vinegar, four of mushroom ketchup, three of anchovy essence, four salt-spoonfuls of salt, and four of mixed mustard. A spoonful of thick cream mixed with a well-mashed floury potato will greatly improve this salad. Wash the lettuce, dry it perfectly, shred it finely, and just before it is wanted mix the salad dressing lightly with it. Probable cost, 1s. 2d.
