=Halibut-and-Cucumber Salad.=
INGREDIENTS.
1 pound of cooked halibut.
2 tablespoonfuls of oil.
1 tablespoonful of lemon juice.
A few drops of onion juice.
Salt and pepper.
2 pimentos.
Lettuce.
Cucumbers.
French dressing.
_Method._--Flake one pound of cooked halibut while hot, and marinate
with the oil, lemon juice, onion juice, salt and pepper. When cold drain
and mix with the pimentos, shredded, after cutting from the same a few
star-shaped or other fanciful figures. Arrange heart leaves of lettuce
in an upright position in the centre of a serving-dish, the fish and
pimentos around the lettuce, and, around these, one large or two small
cucumbers, cut in small cubes and mixed with French dressing. With
salmon use capers instead of pimentos. Use enough dressing to moisten
the cucumbers thoroughly.
=Halibut Salad.=
Steam a thick slice of chicken halibut, until the flesh separates easily
from the bone. Remove the skin and bones without disturbing the shape of
the fish. Marinate, while hot, with three tablespoonfuls of oil, one
tablespoonful of vinegar or lemon juice, and salt and pepper. When cold
put the fish on a serving-dish, and, using endive or Boston Market
lettuce, put the ends of the leaves beneath the fish, so that the tops
of the leaves will fall over upon the fish. Garnish the top with stars
of mayonnaise. Between the leaves dispose sliced pim-olas and fans cut
from small gherkins. Serve mayonnaise with the salad.
