Salsify Sauté.
Scrape and cut the salsify-roots into pieces two inches long; cook tender in boiling water, slightly salt. Shake and drain in a colander, to get rid of all the water. Have in a frying- or saucepan two or three spoonfuls of butter, with a little pepper. When hot, put in the salsify. Heat and toss five minutes, but do not let it brown. Serve very hot. It is exceedingly nice.
