Summer Salad. No. 1
Take three heads of fresh lettuce, one of celery, a little chopped taragon and chervil, and one or two shalots. Season with five tablespoonfuls of pure olive oil, two of white wine vinegar, one teaspoonful of salt, and half a teaspoonful of pepper. Stir well before serving. Cold, boiled haricot beans are a good addition, and also half a pound of cold meat cut in very thin slices.
