Doucette Salad, Plain.— Take a quart of very fresh doucette, pare off the outer stale leaves, if any; also the roots, and wash well in two waters; drain in a napkin, and then place it in a serving salad-bowl. Season with one pinch of salt, and a half pinch of pepper diluted in a wooden salad-spoonful of vinegar; also with one and a half spoonfuls of sweet oil
