Asparagus Canapes. — Scrape and wash well a fresh bunch of aspara- gus ; separate the stalks, tying them in small bunches, and boil eighteen minutes in boiling water, to which one- half table - spoonful of salt has been added. When done remove at once, as they quickly become water-soaked and lose their flavor. Drain in a warm towel, and cut in lengths of four inches long. Serve on canapes made of dry bread with mayonnaise sauce
