TO BAKE SALSIFY

Boil the salsify until the skin comes off easily; then slice and put in a baking-dish a layer of sliced salsify and one of bread-crumbs, with pepper and salt, with a thin covering of butter. Repeat the layers until the dish is filled, finishing with bread-crumbs. Then pour in as much milk as the dish will hold, and a good spoonful of butter, put in oven and bake brown. It will be done in half an hour.
