A simple salad, which is excellent served with cold meats, is made with new carrots. The bunches of small carrots available now are easi- ly digested raw. Rub the skin off the carrots and grate them. Beat together a tablespoonful of lemon juice and a dessertspoonful of salad oil, season with pepper, salt, and sugar and mix with the carrots, taking care not to make them too moist. Leave for an hour or more, then arrange in mounds on freshly washed lettuce leaves. Garnish with shapes of beetroot.

Tomatoes And Cream Cheese

Colour is important in making salads attractive, but a medley of strong flavours spoils them. The aim should be to have one or per- haps two predominating flavours, and the rest should be mild. Here is a pretty salad, of excellent flavour. Remove the skin and seeds from one or two tomatoes and chop up finely. Beat up with a cream cheese. Sea- son with salt and paprika. Add enough tomato ketchup to make the mixture soft. If not a pretty pink | colour, add a few drops of cochineal. Arrange a bed of mustard and cress or watercress on individual salad plates. Put

through a forcing pipe and make fancy mounds. Garnish with strips of pimento.

A gherkin salad makes a pleasant, sharp accompaniment to fat meats like boiled ham. Shred some lettuce leaves into a shallow salad bowl.
