Chop the spinach fine, and put in the dish, stirring in this dressing thoroughly.

A teacupful of cream is often added.

Any tender greens, beet or turnip tops, kale, &c., are treated in this way; kale, however, requiring two hours' boiling.
ARTICHOKES.
Cut off the outside leaves; trim the bottom; throw into boiling, salted water, with a teaspoonful of vinegar in it, and boil an hour.

Season, and serve like turnips, or with drawn butter poured over them.
TOMATOES STEWED.
Pour on boiling water to take off the skins; cut in pieces, and stew slowly for half an hour; adding for a dozen tomatoes a tablespoonful of butter, a teaspoonful of salt, a saltspoonful of pepper, and a teaspoonful of sugar.

Where they are preferred sweet, two tablespoonfuls of sugar will be necessary.
