Boiled Green Corn
Boil twenty-five minutes, if very young and tender. As it grows older it requires a longer time. Send to the table in a napkin.
Boiled Turnips
Peel and cut into slices. If they are to be served in slices, boil with a small piece of pork. Boil the pork three hours, and put in the turnips; if they are the white turnip, they will cook in forty-five minutes; but if the yellow, they will require two hours. Serve in slices without any seasoning except what they get by being boiled with the pork.
