Salad of Fruits.
(Salade de Fruits.)
One and a half pounds of mixed fresh fruits, such as stoned cherries and the kernels, sliced pineapple, stoned and sliced grapes, strawberries, and slices of melon and banana; put all together in a pan, and sprinkle over them a dessert-spoonful of castor sugar, a little cut tarragon and chervil, one tablespoonful of brandy, the same of sherry, ditto of salad oil, and a teaspoonful of tarragon vinegar. When mixed together, place in a plain mould or stewpan in ice; let it get thoroughly cold, and, when ready to serve, turn it into a salad bowl.
