Directions
Slice off stem of pepper; remove seeds. Pour boiling water over pepper; let stand 3 minutes; plunge into ice water. Cut into ¼" rings with sharp knife. Put an endive leaf on top of 2 romaine leaves; next put on a curly leaf of lettuce, then a spray of watercress. Hold firmly and slip a ring of pepper over stems, making a bouquet. Put each portion on a salad plate; pour over dressing; sprinkle with chives. Pretty fancy! Many of the recipes in this collection did not contain amounts or oven temperatures. I have typed them in as they appear in the book, typos and all.
