Pecan Salad.

A tasty variation of the pecan salad, where the nuts are molded in lemon jelly, is the following with walnuts: Four are sliced and covered, not more, with water. Add a slice of onion minced fine, salt, cayenne and a little lemon juice. Sim- ' mer all for five minutes, add a small tablespoonful of gelatin and cool. When it has cooled add a cup of English walnuts and put all on the ice to harden. To serve the salad have ready a bed of white lettuce leaves, break the jellied nuts in small pieces and place a portion on each little nest of hearts. Add a stiff mayonnaise and it is ready to serve. This salad requires rather careful adjustment on the dish, as it must not look “scrambled.”
