Ingredients

  • a cupful of cold milk
  • a piece of salt codfish boiled
  • pepper
  • salt

Directions

1

Wash and scrape the roots, dropping each into cold water as soon as it is cleaned ; exposure to the air blackens them. Cut in pieces an inch long; put into a saucepan with hot water enough to cover them, and stew until tender. Turn off nearly all the water, and add a cupful of cold milk. Stew ten minutes after this begins to boil ; put in butter cut into bits, and rolled in flour ; pepper and salt to taste. Boil up once and serve. A piece of salt codfish boiled with the salsify gives it more of an oyster flavor ; remove codfish before sending to the table.
