Sour or Narrow Dock

This is a common weed in our rich ground and pastures. The leaves are long, narrow, and curly, and are supposed to possess an alterative quality, forming an excellent green for hot weather.

Wash the leaves, throw into a kettle of boiling salted water; boil rapidly for fifteen minutes. Drain, chop fine, and serve hot, with Egg Sauce.
