Ingredients
- four tablespoonfuls of olive oil
- two tablespoonfuls of oil
- a pound of dates
- a teaspoonful of salt
- a tablespoonful of lemon juice
- three choice apples
- one pint
- five strips
- salt
- lemon juice
Directions
Pare and core about three choice apples. Cut them into match- like pieces; there should be about one pint. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the apple. Pour boiling water over half a pound of dates; separate them with a silver fork and skim out upon an agate dish. Let dry off in a hot oven. When cold cut each date into four or five strips, rejecting the stones; sprinkle with one- fourth a teaspoonful of salt and three or four tablespoonfuls of olive oil. Mix the apple and date and set aside in a cool place about an hour. When ready to serve, add a tablespoonful of lemon juice and one or two tablespoonfuls of oil, if the mixture seems dry. Mix thoroughly. Serve in a bowl lined with lettuce hearts.
