Boiled Turnip Tops

Wash thoroughly and pick over a quantity of turnip tops and drain them well. Plunge them in a good supply of fast-boiling water with a small quantity of salt in it and let them boil for twenty or twenty-five minutes. Drain them well and serve either plain or chopped fine, mixed with salt, pepper and a small quantity of butter.
