Chicken Salad. — Take a nice large hen boiled with a pod of red pepper in the pot (clip it carefully), one dozen eggs boiled hard, drop in cold water, mash the yolks carefully and one- third as much mustard; mix them together, smooth with some good vinegar ; chop the whites fine and add to the chicken and egg combined, half cup butter creamed well, add the butter to the yolks and mustard ; add a little cayenne pepper and salt ; mix all carefully and add vinegar to taste. If you cannot get celery use cabbage with celery seed — one teacup soaked in vinegar over night. — Mrs. John W. Buford, Sr. Chicken Salad. — Boil a chicken till tender, cut into small squares, then cut into squares one and one-half stalks of celery, and add one pound of English walnuts, or any other kind you may like, and mix it with mayonnaise dressing
