Tomato En Surprise

Select perfect tomatoes of uniform size. Dip for a moment in boiling water and remove the skin without destroying the smoothness of the surface. Remove a piece from the stem end and scoop out most of the pulp, leaving the shell intact. To the pulp add diced celery, tart apples and pieces of finely minced green pepper shell. The bowl in which this mixture is prepared should be rubbed with a slice of onion so that a faint flavor of it will be given to the mixture. Season with salt and pepper and pour over the prepared pulp a little French dressing. Fill the tomato shells with this mixture, put on each a spoonful of mayonnaise and decorate the top with a slice of truffle.
